Bengals head coach Zac Taylor confirmed Monday that Burrow (toe) will require surgery, though he declined to provide details on an expected recovery timeline for the star quarterback, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic and Ben Baby of ESPN.com reports.

Burrow reportedly suffered a turf toe injury during Sunday's win over the Jaguars and is facing a minimum recovery timetable of three months if he undergoes surgery, per Adam Schefter of ESPN, which could allow him to return in mid-December. The team hasn't yet confirmed either the severity of Burrow's injury or the possibility of him potentially returning this season, according to Charlie Goldsmith of the Dayton Daily News. Jake Browning will take over under center as long as Burrow is sidelined, priming him to start on the road against Minnesota on Sunday, and the Bengals seem like strong candidates to pursue additional depth at the quarterback position.

Burrow will reportedly need toe surgery, which would sideline him for a minimum of three months, according to Adam Schefter of ESPN.

Confirmation is still pending from the Bengals, but it looks like Burrow will miss extended time, which sets the stage for Jake Browning to handle the team's QB duties into December. Brett Rypien is currently on Cincinnati's practice squad, but the team could look elsewhere for signal-caller depth to back up Browning, per Schefter.

Burrow is feared to have suffered a Grade 3 turf toe injury, which would require surgery and a recovery period of at least three months, Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero of NFL Network report.

Burrow exited Sunday's 31-27 win over the Jaguars in the second quarter due to the injury. The star quarterback is still evaluating his options, per Rapoport, but Burrow is likely to face a multi-week absence even if he finds a non-surgical treatment option. Jake Browning produced three total touchdowns after Burrow's injury and would be in line to take over as Cincinnati's starter in Burrow's absence. Browning went 4-3 when Burrow missed the final seven games of the 2023 season due to a torn ligament in his wrist.

Swift rushed 12 times for 63 yards and a touchdown and brought in all three targets for six yards in the Bears' 52-21 loss to the Lions on Sunday. He also lost a fumble.

Swift was able to serve as a bright spot for the Bears' offense on a mostly forgettable afternoon, putting together an efficient performance on the ground that included a three-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter. However, Swift also short-circuited what appeared to be a scoring drive when he lost a fumble at the Lions' 31-yard line late in the first quarter. Through two games, Swift remains the clear No. 1 back in Chicago's ground attack, and he'll have a favorable matchup at home against the Cowboys in a Week 3 showdown next Sunday.

Swift rushed 17 times for 53 yards and caught three of five targets for 12 yards in Monday's 27-24 loss to the Vikings.

Swift finished five yards shy of Caleb Williams' team-high rushing total and was the only Bears running back to record a carry, though rookie Kyle Monangai had one catch out of the backfield. While Swift seems locked into a high touch floor again due to a lack of competition, efficiency remains a concern, as he averaged a career-low 3.8 yards per carry last season and dipped to just 3.1 in Monday's small sample. Finding running room won't be easy Week 2 against the Lions, who held Swift to 59 yards on 20 carries (3.0 YPC) in two 2024 meetings.

Higgins recorded three catches on eight targets for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 31-27 win over the Jaguars.

Higgins bounced back from a poor Week 1 performance, thanks primarily to a long 42-yard touchdown late in the third quarter. That pass was delivered by Jake Browning after Joe Burrow departed with a toe injury, and it was Higgins' only catch on five targets that he was able to haul in from Browning. If Burrow is set to miss additional time, Higgins could become a boom or bust fantasy option with Ja'Marr Chase continuing to dominate targets in the Cincinnati offense.

Higgins recorded three receptions on four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 17-16 win over the Browns.

The Cincinnati offense had a surprisingly poor opening performance against the Browns, leading to limited production for all of its skill-position players. Higgins led the team in receiving yards thanks to a 13-yard catch as well as a pair of 10-yard gains, but it was still a disappointing showing. He should remain a key part of Cincinnati's offense and will have a chance to bounce back in Week 2 against the Jaguars.

Sampson rushed four times for six yards and brought in all three targets for 13 yards and a touchdown in the Browns' 41-17 loss to the Ravens on Sunday.

Sampson rushed the ball 12 times for 29 yards in Sunday's 17-16 loss to the Bengals. He added eight receptions on eight targets for 64 yards.

Olave caught six of 10 targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 26-21 loss to the 49ers.

Olave caught seven of 13 targets for 54 yards in Sunday's 20-13 loss to the Cardinals.

Legette caught one of eight targets for minus-2 yards in Sunday's 27-22 loss to the Cardinals.

Legette caught three of seven targets for 10 yards in Sunday's 26-10 loss to the Jaguars.
