Resolution criteria
Resolve YES if Joe Burrow is credited with at least one official offensive snap in any NFL regular-season or postseason game played after the Bengals’ Week 2 game on September 14, 2025 (i.e., Week 3 or later in the 2025 season, including playoffs through Super Bowl LIX). Verification sources: Pro‑Football‑Reference 2025 Bengals snap counts and/or the NFL Gamebook via the NFL.com Game Center for the specific game. Resolves YES immediately on first qualifying snap; otherwise NO after the Bengals’ final game of the 2025–26 season. (bengals.com)
Counting rules: kneeldowns and two‑point tries count if the official source credits an offensive snap; being active, only taking warmups, or appearing solely on special teams does not; penalties resulting in “no play” do not count unless the official source credits a snap. If Burrow takes a snap for any NFL team after Week 2 (via trade/signing), it qualifies. (pro-football-reference.com)
Background
Burrow exited the Bengals’ Week 2 win on September 14, 2025 with a left toe injury; early reporting indicated a multi‑week absence. Cincinnati is 2–0 with Week 3 at Minnesota on September 21, 2025. (reuters.com)
Considerations
Postseason snaps (Jan–Feb 2026) count; preseason does not. (bengals.com)
PFR snap counts can lag on game day; the NFL Gamebook for that game is the tiebreaker. (pro-football-reference.com)
If Cincinnati’s season ends and Burrow later signs elsewhere during 2025–26 and takes a snap, market resolves YES at that time. (pro-football-reference.com)
