The problem of course is what you said about injuries for future seasons. They have to pay Burrow $65 million in 2024. If I was the owner, I would rather get Burrow 100% healthy for 2024 instead of worrying about this year. If nothing else, they can get a really good Draft pick if the backup QB struggles in a big way.

Or what? Can't threaten the contract, can't cut him, what's the owner going to do?
