Bengals activate Joe Burrow to 53-man roster, set to start on Thanksgiving

Our Summary

Joe Burrow has been activated to the Cincinnati Bengals' 53-man roster and is set to start in Thursday night's game against the Baltimore Ravens. Burrow has been out since Week 2 due to torn ligaments in his toe sustained during a win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Last season, Burrow led the NFL with 4,918 passing yards and 43 touchdowns, earning the AP Comeback Player of the Year award. Additionally, the Bengals activated safety Daijahn Anthony from injured reserve, where he was recovering from a hamstring injury. In contrast, cornerback Marco Wilson was placed on injured reserve following a hamstring injury in the team's Week 12 loss to the New England Patriots.
