    NFL sideline clip shows Burrow saying it happened mid-game

    A newly posted NFL clip captures Burrow telling receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins on the sideline during the game itself that a hit had popped his rib back into place, indicating the postgame remark wasn't a joke.

    • I never fully blamed Taylor. He’s not a top ten coach, but he’s not causing losses either. Management failing to get the necessary free agents and drafting high risk players in positions of immediate need caused a lot of the problems. But this offseason they did the opposite and it is working out thus far. Still wish we had signed a vet LB though.
