The team didn’t provide any additional information on Burrow’s condition after the game or on Sunday evening. On Monday morning, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Burrow “checked out fine” and was released from the hospital on Sunday night.
So, it doesn’t seem like Burrow is in danger of missing any time.
