As previously reported, head coach Zac Taylor said on Monday that he anticipated Burrow would play in the Bengals’ game against the Baltimore Ravens on Thanksgiving.
“He looks like he’s in good shape right now to be ready to go,” Taylor said.
Thursday will mark Burrow’s first action since he was injured against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sept. 14.
Burrow suffered a toe injury during the second quarter of that game and was placed on the Injured Reserve list two days later.
He returned to practice on Nov. 10.
The Bengals, who now have a 3-8 record, have won one game since Burrow’s injury. They began starting backup quarterback Jake Browning before making a trade with the Cleveland Browns for Joe Flacco.
