'Burrow threw to Chase and Uzomah separate from the rest of the team. He is rehabbing daily at the stadium and is expected to continue his throwing program throughout OTA's.'

Awesome. Uzo hung with Burrow a lot this Offseason as well both rehabbing together.

There was a thread of Burrow throwing a month or two back and he was throwing 30 to 40 yards down field with ease.

Think he has a stronger arm this season.

We saw it early in the season before he went down just the sheer number of targets he was getting. I expect even with the talent we have at receiver this year, CJ will still get a really strong amount of targets this year. 

Yes, thinking Uzo could be our breakout player on Offense the more I think about it. With Chase the underneath route 
runners will feast in Boyd and our TE's. If Uzo can stay healthy he could have a great season. He is big not terribly slow
and has good hands.

True, would be different if it was the plant leg.
