NFL Network's Mike Garafolo hears that Bengals QB Joe Burrow (calf) will likely be available for Week 1, although it doesn't sound like it's a lock. "No one's putting a timeframe on [Burrow's return]," Garafolo said. "But my belief is that Week 1 should be a realistic possibility for Joe Burrow. That's the sound that I'm getting. No one's really saying, 'boy he's really in danger of missing a couple of regular-season weeks.' Now, that being said, it's a calf injury. It's tricky. You can re-injure it. It can lead to other things. So the Bengals surely will be cautious with this." It doesn't sound like we'll see Burrow in the preseason, which is nothing new for him. He's played three preseason snaps in his career. Burrow's health will be the biggest storyline of the rest of the summer. Stay tuned for updates. For now, we've nudged Burrow one spot down the QB Rankings.
