Vontaze Burfict got through about six quarters after his latest suspension Alex Erickson Jersey , before making a play that could result in another one.The Bengals linebacker hit Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown in the head during the third quarter, getting him with his arm as Brown was being tackled.He wasn’t penalized on the play, but his teammates defended the oft-suspended Burfict, who didn’t talk to reporters about the play, gathering his items and getting dressed in the Bengals trainer’s room.鈥淲e have to see what they call,鈥?Bengals cornerback Dre Kirkpatrick said, via Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.聽鈥淭he dude just plays football. I don鈥檛 think that was intentional. I didn鈥檛 even see it. He just plays football. They have to relax a little bit and give him a chance.鈥滱s Kirkpatrick was talking, Burfict came out of the trainer’s room, realized what was happening, and said:聽鈥淲hat they say, Dre?鈥?Kirkpatrick then said: 鈥淚 got you,鈥?before the ever-charming Burfict told reporters:聽鈥淕et your ass out of our locker room.鈥滱sked to elaborate, Burfict continued to walk out of the locker room.The league reviews each game, and routinely issues punishments after the fact William Jackson Jersey , and Burfict’s recidivist status will certainly draw their attention. He missed the first four games of this season for violating the PED policy, but has multiple incidents of over-the-line hits.Bengals RB Joe Mixon already working on the rehab field When Joe Mixon had arthroscopic knee surgery, the belief was he would be sidelined for 2-4 weeks.But earlier this week, Mixon said he felt great and his return to game action would ultimately be his call.Based on what happened Friday, that could be sooner rather than later, as Mixon was able to get in a nice workout on the rehad field: When a player is recovering from injury, they usually spend several days of practice on the rehab field before returning to action, depending on the severity of the injury. The fact that Mixon is already on the rehab field after having surgery less than a week ago is a good sign that he’s progressing nicely.I don’t think Mixon will be healthy enough to play in Week 4 against the Falcons, but a Week 5 return against the Dolphins now looks very realistic. If this surgery ultimately costs Mixon just two games, then it will be a huge win for him and the Bengals, all things considered. Update: Mixon was dancing around and having some fun, entertaining Dre Kirkpatrick while the cornerback was in the cold tub today.
