Another hot, humid practice in the Midwest, and I got to see a prime contender in Cincinnati. Here are my five takeaways from a steamy afternoon with the Bengals …
• Joe Burrow looked healthy, with the caveat that this was a heavy special teams day. He went through team drills early. Then, when the Bengals went into the kicking game, he and the other quarterbacks went to the second practice field and threw. I don’t know if he’s quite back to where he was before he got hurt. But given the lack of precedent for the wrist injury he suffered, and all he’s been through, and the camp he’s having, my feeling is he’s trending in a really good direction.
