Hauls in lone target Burton caught his lone target for a 19-yard gain in Saturday's 27-3 preseason loss to Chicago.
Impact Burton started and got a lot of playing time early, while Ja'Marr Chase (contract), Tee Higgins, Andrei Iosivas and Trenton Irwin all were rested. Higgins, Iosivas and Irwin all worked ahead of Burton in the previous preseason game, but Burton came on strong in the second half to finish with a 3-82-1 receiving line on four targets in a loss to the Bucs. While he had a quieter game Saturday against Chicago and may enter Week 1 as a backup, Burton has at least done enough to give the Bengals some reminder of why they took him in the third round of the 2024 NFL Draft. Starting the season lower on the depth chart doesn't mean he'll stay there all year.

Paces pass catchers Saturday Burton secured three of four targets for 82 yards and a touchdown in the Bengals' 17-14 preseason loss to the Buccaneers on Saturday night.
Impact The rookie logged 18 snaps and surprisingly didn't enter the game until the 3:22 mark of the second quarter. He'd only logged six snaps and was still without a target entering the final period, but he made the most of the final 15 minutes. Burton's biggest play of the night was his 37-yard touchdown grab down the left sideline with 3:33 remaining, and he added a contested 38-yard grab on the first play of Cincinnati's final possession. Burton's reception and receiving yardage tallies shared or held the lead for the Bengals on the night, and the stellar night keeps the rookie firmly in contention with Andrei Iosivas for the No. 3 receiver job.

Resumes practicing Sunday Burton (ankle) is back at practice Sunday, Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact Burton hurt his ankle in practice Thursday and sat out Friday, but the injury appears to have been minor given his ability to get back on the field Sunday. The rookie third-round draft pick is battling for positioning on Cincinnati's wideout depth chart. Burton, Andrei Iosivas, Trenton Irvin and Charlie Jones are all candidates for the No. 3 receiver job for the 2024 campaign.

Exits practice early Burton exited Thursday's practice early after having his foot examined, Jason Hoffman of the Cincinnati Enquirer reports.
Impact Per Jordan Schultz of BleacherReport.com, Burton suffered only an "ankle tweak" and his exit from practice was precautionary. Once the 2024 third-rounder returns to the field, he'll continue to compete with Andrei Iosivas, Trenton Irwin and Charlie Jones for slotting behind top WRs Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins.
