Joe Burrow, the Cincinnati Bengals' quarterback, shrugged off a bloody finger injury and led his team to a win over the Buffalo Bills. Despite the injury, which resulted in a ripped nail, Burrow's grip and throwing ability remained unaffected. His performance improved as the game progressed, with him completing 6 passes for 65 yards in one drive, and throwing for a total of 348 yards and 2 touchdowns. Burrow's humorous description of the injury as a 'little cut, nothing bad' amused NBC's Melissa Stark. He stated his intent to 'just continue to get better'.
