The quarterback played 24 snaps in Monday's win over the Commanders, expressing satisfaction with protection and Cincinnati's efficient running game.

ESPN's Stephen A. Smith went off on Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor over a decision involving quarterback Joe Burrow.

With Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, Joe Burrow has a pair of standout receivers to target in the passing game. But the quarterback is backing another player that is fighting for a roster spot, one who put on a show Monday night against the Washington Commanders.

With less than three weeks to go until the start of the 2025 season, it's still unclear if Trey Hendrickson is going to suit up for the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 1 or if he's even going to be playing for them.

The Cincinnati Bengals started Joe Burrow and the rest of the stars for the first quarter against the Commanders and that set the tone for Cincy's night.
