STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Elevated Josh Johnson as emergency QB after Burrow took a hit in Week 1 trying to gain extra yards on a run. likely precautionary roster move (emergency QBs must be on 53-man roster, not practice squad), but reignites durability concerns. Burrow routinely takes unnecessary risks—holding the ball too long in pocket or not sliding when running—putting himself in danger. Multiple comments note his injury history and question when he last had a fully healthy season. Sentiment mixed: some say backs lock up randomly and he'll play; others view this as another sign of his poor decision-making and fragility.
