Joe Burrow
will have surgery
CINCINNATI (AP) — Cincinnati Bengals coach Zac Taylor confirms that quarterback Joe Burrow will have surgery on his injured left toe.
Taylor didn’t have a timeline Monday for when Burrow will have surgery or how long the franchise quarterback might be out. The turf toe injury is expected to sideline Burrow a minimum of three months.
It is Burrow’s third major injury in his six seasons since being the top overall pick in the 2020 draft. It’s a major blow to Cincinnati, which is off to its first 2-0 start since 2018 and has postseason aspirations after missing the playoffs the past two seasons.
Meanwhile, Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy will likely miss Sunday’s game against Cincinnati with a sprained ankle, according to coach Kevin O’Connell. Carson Wentz, who joined the Vikings two weeks ago, will start against the Bengals.
Jayden Daniels
has knee injury
WASHINGTON (AP) — Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels is dealing with a knee injury, and coach Dan Quinn says the AP NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year’s status for the team’s next game is up in the air.
The Commanders host the Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. Daniels had an MRI on his knee. Quinn said the player’s status is considered day to day. Daniels was hurt in Washington’s 27-18 loss at the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night.
The second-year QB was sacked four times and faced pressure throughout the game from a blitz-heavy Packers’ defense.
Ed Giacomin
dies at age 86
(AP) — Hall of Fame goaltender Ed Giacomin has died. He was 86.
The New York Rangers and NHL Alumni Association announced Giacomin’s death Monday.
A cause of death was not immediately available. Giacomin won the Vezina Trophy as the league’s top goalie and was a five-time All-Star during more than a decade with the Rangers from 1965-76 before finishing his career with the Detroit Red Wings.
His No. 1 is retired in the rafters at Madison Square Garden in New York.
Duplantis sets
pole vault record
TOKYO (AP) — Armand “Mondo” Duplantis has broken the pole vault world record for the 14th time. He cleared 6.30 meters (20.67 feet) to capture his third world championship in Tokyo on Monday.
Duplantis grew up in Louisiana but competes for his mother’s native Sweden. He easily won his 49th straight meet then kept the crowd around for another drama-rich half-hour to watch him go for the record. He cleared his top height on his third and final try.
The bar bounced but did not fall. He gets $70,000 for the victory plus a $100,000 bonus for setting the record at the world championships.
Arch Manning
sees rough start
(AP) — Texas quarterback Arch Manning promises better days ahead after a rough start to the season. Manning addressed questions Monday about his performance in last week’s win over UTEP.
No. 8 Texas faces Sam Houston State this week. Manning started the season as the Heisman Trophy favorite, but poor play has essentially erased that.
Manning has completed just 55% of his passes through three games and was even booed by some in the home crowd last week. Texas coach Steve Sarkisian urges patience, saying Manning will grow from this adversity.
