Fantasy Impact:

Additionally, Schefter is reporting that Burrow suffered other structural issues in his knee. Basically, this was worse than anticipated. Still, the injury occurred "early enough" in the season that the expectation should be that Burrow is reading for the 2021 opener. For fantasy football moving forward, this kills the value of all Bengals skill position players. Ryan Finley is expected to start the rest of the way.
