The detrimental wrist injury occurred during the crucial Week 11 loss to the Baltimore Ravens. It was a major blow for the star quarterback, necessitating immediate surgery.
Having the surgery on November 27th, the starting QB was out of action for a significant period, which was a frustrating waiting game for both fans and teammates.
The expected recovery time was initially estimated to be between four to six months.
Now, fast forward to just over five months since the surgery and a few weeks away from the six-month mark, there’s finally some good news in the Bengals’ camp.
