Burrow completed 39 of 54 passes for 428 yards with one touchdown and two interceptions while rushing three times for six yards and another score in the Bengals' 22-17 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday. He also committed a fumble recovered by Cincinnati.
Burrow's passing yardage total was made all the more noteworthy by the fact he lost Ja'Marr Chase to a concussion in the first half. The prolific 2020 first-round pick put up new season highs in completions, pass attempts and passing yards, while also generating his first multi-interception tally of the campaign. The first of Burrow's picks came right after the two-minute warning in the first half at the Jaguars' 37-yard line and led to a Jacksonville touchdown. Nevertheless, he continued to battle as the Bengals trailed throughout the rest of the contest, and despite also losing Tee Higgins to an adductor injury with just under six minutes remaining, Burrow drove Cincinnati all the way down to the Jags' nine-yard line before losing the ball on downs with 56 seconds remaining. Prior to that point, Burrow had put his team in position for a potential game-winning touchdown via a 15-yard scoring toss to Mike Gesicki in the third quarter and a one-yard QB sneak with just over three minutes remaining for his first rushing score of the season. Burrow and the Bengals will look to regroup and get Chase and Higgins back for a Week 5 road matchup against the Dolphins next Sunday.
