Russell Wilson Predicts Joe Burrow's Departure if Bengals Struggle Again

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow declared he is "here for the long haul" and "not going anywhere" before Week 1 of the 2026 season, but Russell Wilson's comments in his CBS broadcasting debut added a new dimension to the burden on Burrow. Wilson predicted that if Cincinnati struggles again, Burrow is gone and could potentially go to a great team that needs a quarterback. Burrow's recent comments were about bringing urgency to the season, rather than signaling he wants out of Cincinnati.
