Joe Burrow directs two touchdown drives, Bengals outlast Jayden Daniels’ Commanders for 31-17 win
Joe Burrow and Jayden Daniels, Heisman Trophy-winning quarterbacks from LSU, headlined the “Monday Night Football” matchup in the second preseason game for each team.
Burrow’s preference comes through in the answer. It’s “great” to get the deals done early, like the Bengals did with Higgins and Chase. And while the NFL is a deadline-driven business, the deadline when a player is holding in shouldn’t be Week 1. It should be tied to the practical deadline for getting the player ready to go for Week 1.
After the game he was able to share a special moment with Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels. They both played at LSU and they both won a Heisman Trophy during their college careers, so this meetup had a little more extra meaning. LSU Tigers fans must have loved seeing that.
Bengals fans held their breath as quarterback Joe Burrow was brought down violently twice during preseason action against the Commanders.
"Well Jake Browning, he comes in now," Troy Aikman said during the broadcast. "He takes over. Oh, excuse me. No Burrow, he's back in."
