"I'm not ever going to go to somebody and say, 'Yeah, I'm healthy, but I don't think I should go out there and play,'" Burrow said Tuesday, ahead of his anticipated return against the Baltimore Ravens on Thanksgiving. "That doesn't make a lot of sense to me. I'm not going to live my life and play this game scared of something happening."

Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki will be out for the foreseeable future following a pectoral injury he suffered in the loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. On Monday, coach Zac Taylor told reporters in Cincinnati that more information is being gathered regarding the injury's severity, which will set the timetable. But he will "for sure" be unavailable for Thursday's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

CINCINNATI -- Cincinnati Bengals coach Zac Taylor did not have an official timeline for quarterback Joe Burrow to return following successful toe surgery on Friday. Burrow underwent surgery to repair a turf toe injury on his left foot, Taylor said after Friday's practice. The coach said the surgery went well. "There's no reason to give a timeline," Taylor said. "We don't have a timeline. Now he's just in recovery and we'll go from there."

Initially, Burrow was limping as he tried to walk off the field. But after a couple of steps, he went down on the turf. Burrow had a lengthy evaluation in the blue injury tent. After several minutes, he attempted to walk to the locker room. However, Burrow stopped roughly 15 feet short of the tunnel that leads beneath the stadium as he sought assistance from athletic trainers to make it back inside.

CINCINNATI -- Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow suffered a left toe injury in Sunday's game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Burrow was sacked with 8:36 left in the second quarter of Cincinnati's home opener. After he was taken down by Jaguars defensive end Arik Armstead, a couple more players piled on top of Cincinnati's star quarterback. He attempted to gingerly walk to the sideline before he went down on the field and was evaluated by the Bengals' training staff.

"We're ready to go. Had some pain yesterday. I'm good today," Garrett said Friday following a lifting session after practice.

"I am very sorry for my actions," the 44-year-old New Jersey resident said in Brooklyn federal court. "Most of my business was completely legitimate, and it was a good business."
