Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is back on the field this season after suffering a wrist injury last fall.

An Arthrex animation was used to educate viewers on Burrow’s injured right scapholunate ligament in his throwing wrist during the preseason Thursday Night Football broadcast on NFL on Prime.

Burrow returned to play with the Bengals during regular season Week 1 and has said his wrist is “continually getting better.”

University of Georgia Bulldogs offensive guard Tate Ratledge underwent the Arthrex Syndesmosis TightRope® XP procedure after spraining his left ankle in the third game of his senior season. Ratledge has started in 31 games for Georgia and was a second-team All American and first-team All SEC selection in 2023.

Bulldogs Coach Kirby Smart says he is undergoing rehab and will be back as soon as he can. Ratledge’s former teammate Brock Bowers made headlines last year for returning to the field in record time after TightRope surgery in November 2023.
