Analyst Expects Joe Burrow to Make 'Biggest Leap' in 2021

This is great to see!

Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is recovering from reconstruction surgery on his left knee, but expectations are still sky-high for the former No. 1 overall pick.

The 24-year-old flashed his potential in 10 games during his rookie campaign, before tearing the ACL and MCL in his left knee against Washington. 

He completed 65.3% of his passes for 2,688 yards, 13 touchdowns and five interceptions.

NFL Network analyst Peter Schrager pegged Burrow as a dark horse candidate to make the biggest leap forward in 2021. 

“I don’t want us to forget how good Joe Burrow was when he started off his career in Cincinnati," Schrager said. "He was awesome and I go back to the Thursday night game against the Browns when Joe Burrow went head-to-head with Baker Mayfield and went throw for throw and was getting hit like no tomorrow behind a shaky offensive line... I think Burrow has it all upstairs and he has a gift that can only be blossoming even more.”

Burrow's rehab appears to be going well. He hopes to be back on the field for the start of the 2021 season.
