Only one change was made to the Cincinnati Bengals ' injury report on Thursday, and it involves the most important player on the team with a matchup against the Cleveland Browns just days away.
Quarterback Joe Burrow has been consistently listed on the injury report this year with his recovering right wrist, but the team also added his shin as another injury he's dealing with. Burrow was indeed a full participant both Wednesday and Thursday this week, but anything a player needs some form of treatment for, it goes on the injury report.
It's unclear when a shin ailment popped up for Burrow. He did rush for a 47-yard touchdown against the New York Giants this past Sunday night, but he wasn't listed with the injury on Wednesday. He also avoided a concussion that night.
The most likely case is it bothered him during Thursday's practice, but not enough for him to miss any reps.
Any injury, minor or major, for Burrow is important here. Head coach Zac Taylor will surely be asked about it following Friday's practice.
Cornerback DJ Ivey (knee) and defensive tackle Kris Jenkins Jr. (thumb) remained full participants with known injuries. Cornerback DJ Turner II (ankle) was also limited for a second-straight day.
