Brett Favre previews the return of NFL on FOX
NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Brett Favre joins 'Fox and Friends Weekend.'
Joe Burrow’s debut with the Cincinnati Bengals was met with heartbreak at the end of the game against the Los Angeles Chargers.
Burrow had thrown what he thought was a touchdown pass to A.J. Green to put Cincinnati ahead with 11 seconds remaining in the game. However, Green was called for offensive pass interference which set up a potential game-tying field goal from Reggie Bullock.

Bullock missed the 31-yard field-goal attempt wide right and came up limping afterward. The Chargers won the game, 16-13, and Burrow’s first game of his career was a devastating loss.
Burrow scored his first touchdown on a 23-yard gallop in the first quarter.
