Athletes frequently have appendectomies, with minimal downtime as a result. John Wolford, the backup quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams, underwent the procedure in August of last year, causing him to miss the first two weeks of the season.

Also in 2006, former Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger had the operation.

Burrow is about to begin his third season with the Bengals, and he has already dealt with a number of health problems, the worst of which was the knee injury that ended his first season. He had a dislocated finger and a contusion on his throat from the previous season. Burrow was not sidelined by any of those injuries.

That said, I think that if you want to perform at peak efficiency, you need more like four to six weeks "Christ Hospital's general surgeon, Dr. John Schilling, made this statement.

He also said it's better to address the problem now than during the season.
