Maybe fans are backpedaling on what make Burrow special.  But today's Burrow isn't the Burrow of a year ago.  He had a season-ending knee injury and surgery.  That can mess with the head in a way he hasn't dealt with before.  There's almost guaranteed to be some hesitation on his part on the field.  Better to get those cobwebs shaken loose in preseason when the poor timing interception or dumping the ball just to clear it don't matter as much.  

If he doesn't play against Washington this week, fine.  But I think he has to be on the field against Miami, and probably more than just one series since he's sitting out the other two preseason games entirely.
