Joe Burrow 2023 NFL Player Outlook: Record Contract Extension Coming?
1 year ago2023 is the last year that the Cincinnati Bengals will have quarterback Joe Burrow on the cheap via his rookie deal. Even without a ton of rushing upside, Burrow should still be viewed as a Top 5 quarterback for fantasy in 2023. The Bengals ran 11 personnel at an 82% rate in 2022, good for the second-highest in the NFL. With Joe Mixon, Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, and some improvements on the offensive line, it's hard not to see the Bengals' offense as a potent foe for 2023. In the two seasons combined Burrow has averaged 4500+ passing yards and 34+ TD passes per year. Burrow had a recent scare at Bengals training camp when he was carted off after suffering a calf strain that could keep him out for 4-6 weeks. Nonetheless, he is expected to be ready for the start of Week 1, but his injury status is worth keeping an eye on over the next month or so.
