CINCINNATI — The Bengals lost to the Commanders 38-33 on Monday night. They're 0-3 for the first time in the Joe Burrow era.

Burrow walked off the field with head coach Zac Taylor. Instead of going in the locker room, they went into a different room.

"It was just a private conversation with Zac," Burrow said. "It was a positive conversation. We're not happy with where we're at, but by no means is the season over. We're 0-3. There's 14 left to play."

Burrow added that it was a mutual conversation and wasn't specifically initiated by him or his head coach.

"We just have to continue to get better and see where the cards fall in the next 10 weeks," Burrow said. "We just have to go into this week preparing to get better and trying to get a win. That's all you can do."
