He clearly couldn't grip the football and even attempting a throw put him in serious pain. This came after he threw a second quarter touchdown to Joe Mixon. It was only a four-yard throw but had some serious consequences. Here's the throw:Joe Burrow was in some pain following that TD pass to Joe Mixon.He didn’t get hit or anything, but was flexing his throwing hand. pic.twitter.com/nEinSjLU7I— James Rapien (@JamesRapien) November 17, 2023We don't know what the specific injury is, but it did not look good. The Bengals are now without one of the NFL's best quarterbacks in the critical divisional matchup. Jake Brown stepped in to replace him. We'll keep you updated if Burrow returns or we get more definitive news on his status. UPDATE: The Bengals ruled Burrow out for the game with a wrist injury.

data-mm-id=”_f774lg4sf”>Miami and new head coach Manny Diaz made a lot of noise this offseason. Diaz loudly claimed he wanted to bring swagger back to "The U" and wound up landing a number of big-name transfers. Hype increased and the Hurricanes were expected to show some life this season. That hasn't happened.Miami lost to Florida International 30-24 on Saturday in a monumentally embarrassing upset. The Hurricanes were favored by 21 points and somehow lost to a terrible FIU squad. It was the third time Miami has lost as at least a 14-point favorite this season. It has been 40 years since that happened in college football. With the loss to FIU, Miami becomes the only team in the last 40 years to lose three times as a 14-point favorite in a single season. Canes lost to VT…
data-mm-id=”_0jxpagruw”>Jermaine Jones has never been a man to hold back his opinions, and in a new interview with Sports Illustrated's Grant Wahl, he went off on the way U.S. Soccer is currently run. Jones often used the phrase "with all due respect" before absolutely annihilating an aspect of the U.S. Soccer system. A brief sampling is below.On Bruce Arena:”“Bruce Arena, with all due respect, is the worst coach I ever had in my whole career. The worst. And he’s like the No. 1 American coach.””More on Arena:”“With all due respect, how can you go from Bob Bradley and Jürgen Klinsmann to Bruce Arena? Like, what are you doing, guys?””On long-time U.S. national team player Tim Ream:”“Tim Ream is not a national team captain, with all due respect. He’s a nice m…

Adrian Wojnarowski dropped a patented Woj Bomb on Monday evening when he reported Doc Rivers was out as head coach of the team. Coach Doc Rivers is out with the Clippers, sources tell ESPN.— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) September 28, 2020This is a surprise because it was only Doc's first year with the star pairing of Kawhi Leonard and Paul George that came together last summer. And it was obviously quite a weird year, what with the pandemic cutting the season short and the playoffs taking place in neutral territory while players were, for the most part, unable to see friends or family. Losing a series in seven games after going up 3-1 is definitely…

He's expected to be out for a while. The safety is a budding star but missed 11 games last season thanks to a foot injury. A breakout was expected in 2020. That may be on hold.#Chargers star safety Derwin James is likely to miss significant time with a meniscus injury he suffered during today’s practice, I’m told.

data-mm-id=”_awk2meeg9″>ESPN is coming off its most successful Monday Night Football broadcast of the season, drawing an average of 14 million viewers, which was up 36 percent year-over-year, for the Chiefs win against the Ravens. Week 4 won't be so kind. With the Chiefs game against the Patriots being moved to Monday night this week following Cam Newton being diagnosed with COVID, ESPN will now be competing against the top broadcast booth in football (Tony Romo and Jim Nantz) and for viewership against CBS. Even worse, it will do so starting from behind. Chiefs-Patriots has been scheduled for 7:05 p.m. ET on Monday night and, as mentioned, will be broadcast on CBS. Packers-Falcons will kick off at 8:50 p.m. ET and will broadcast on ESPN. It's kind of like the season-opening …

data-mm-id=”_t016rwnl3″>LeBron James is the most famous basketball player of the century and everything about his profile supports that claim. LeBron suits up on the court every year but his outside interests are beginning to permeate pop culture with more regularity. He starred in Space Jam 2. He started up his own production company. He invested in the Fenway Sports Group to become a minority owner of the Boston Red Sox, Pittsburgh Penguins, and Liverpool FC. All this happened within the last five or so years. On Thursday, the news we all expected to come eventually appeared: LeBron James has become a billionaire. Per Forbes: After another monster year of earnings–totaling $121.2 million last year–Forbes estimates that James has officially become a billionaire, while still playin…

Pat McAfee was tasked with giving the opening monologue, which should not come as a surprise. He is built perfectly for something like this. Coupled with his status as ESPN's newest big-ticket hire and he was always going to get some screentime at the ESPYS this year. McAfee's speech touched upon Damar Hamlin, who was in attendance last night to present the Pat Tillman Award For Service to the Buffalo Bills' training staff. While telling the story of the night the staff saved Hamlin's night McAfee took a shot at Skip Bayless, to the great delight of the crowd. Damar Hamlin is an ABSOLU…
data-mm-id=”_p0q3t5flh”>The NFL's official bio on X is an homage to a Taylor Swift song. The league's Instagram bio points out that the Kansas City Chiefs are a perfect 2-0 in games the singer has attended. Those contest have come against the truly pathetic Chicago Bears at Arrowhead and the plucky but limited New York Jets across the river from the place Swift famously welcomed people and assured the city had been waiting for them. Swift's newish but intensely covered budding relationship with All-Pro tight end and podcaster Travis Kelce is the platonic ideal of when sports and pop culture merge. It's pure Americana and if given the afternoon to get baked, a person would be able to come up with a 5,000-word thinkpiece about her new era of bringing back the monocult…
