The Cincinnati Bengals are now 3-8 and all eyes turn to Thanksgiving night and whether or not quarterback Joe Burrow will return. As of Nov. 23, following the Bengals’ 26-20 loss to the New England Patriots at Paycor Stadium, the organization has yet to publicly say if Burrow will start against the Baltimore Ravens on Nov. 27.

The team opted to keep Burrow on injured reserve, which likely paves the way for him to return on Thanksgiving against Baltimore. That's a plan that both Burrow and the team have had for quite some time according to NFL insider Dianna Russini.

It'll be another week without Joe Burrow for the Bengals. Cincinnati did not activate its franchise quarterback from injured reserve ahead of Sunday's game against the Patriots, meaning Burrow will miss the contest.

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco returned to practice on Wednesday after missing the last two games with a PCL sprain. He did participate while wearing a knee brace. Wide receiver Xavier Worthy (ankle) and Kingley Suamataia (concussion) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
