JoeBurrow is speaking out about his own experiences with hard hits to the head following Tua Tagovailoa’s recent injury … revealing he’s blacked out and completely lost memory of parts of games. (Read More Here).
The Cincinnati Bengals superstar’s comments come as the topic of concussions has returned to the spotlight this season … after the Dolphins allowed their star QB to play in a game just four days after he appeared to suffer a serious head injury against the Bills.
Burrow says, unfortunately, these things will continue to happen due to the nature of the sport … and players know what they’re signing up for.
“You’re going to have head injuries,” Burrow said on Colin Cowherd’s podcast. “You’re going to tear your ACL. You’re going to break your arm. That’s the game that we play. That’s the life that we live.”
Burrow — who said he’s had concussions where he didn’t remember the second half of a game or an entire game — said there’s an inherent risk associated with the sport that he accepts.
