But he cannot hold onto the ball as he is learning from our pass rush. He is learning from his mistakes right now and will as the 
year goes on I have no doubt. Just have to help him out with a decent O-line in front of him and hopefully AJ and Ross can stay
healthy for him. Been seeing our TE's getting targeted a lot more too since Burrow has gotten here.

Both Sample and Uzi have looked good catching passes from Joe.

The TEs, specifically Uzo and Samples as you mentioned, are one of many things I am excited about this season.

One of the keys for what you are talking about is when they go empty, and with tempo, Burrow will need a receiver (or RB) that can generate quick separation and can be a quick target if the pass rush gets through.  I, for one, never understood the "taking another guy out of the pattern to keep in to block" idea with a RB on blitz pickup.  Burrow processes things really quickly and if teams blitz him, he will burn them.  He just has to have reliable targets and I think he will have a very solid receiving corps between the WR, TE, and RB position groups.
