Joe Burrow Comments on Gruesome Scar That Was on Full Display During Bengals' Uniform Reveal

Burrow likes the new uniforms, can't wait to get back out on the field

CINCINNATI — Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow continues to rehab from left knee reconstruction surgery. He had his ACL and MCL repaired in December. The 24-year-old has been throwing since late February. 

Burrow worked out at Black Sheep Performance in Blue Ash [a suburb of Cincinnati] on Tuesday. It's part of his regular routine, along with going to Paul Brown Stadium for his daily rehab. 

He took note of some of the comments that were circulating about the scar on his left knee that remains following his surgery. It was on full display following the Bengals' new uniform reveal on Monday. 

“If you die without any scars then you never did anything worth fighting for," Burrow wrote on Instagram with a picture of himself while wearing the Bengals' new white jerseys.

Burrow probably saw some of the memes and conversation about the scar. The good news is he's on track to return for the start of the 2021 season

The Bengals went 2-7-1 in Burrow's 10 starts as a rookie. He completed 65.3% of his passes for 2,688 yards, 13 touchdowns and five interceptions. It was a small sample size, but he could be the NFL's next great quarterback.
