Besides reports like the one pally just posted, Burrow himself said he needs to take some hits and have some live game reps before he will feel truly normal again. He didnt say that for no reason. Yesterdays chosen starting OL didnt sound very good either. Not a good way to open the first day in pads.
Around the NFL, Rashawn Slater shines on his first day with pads on and dominated every DE he went up against including Joey Bosa. I hope we start hearing reports like this about Chase and Carmen soon. Burrow needs it.

Not surprised about Slater looking great thus far, and I expect him to be a stud for many years if he stays healthy. I went back and forth between he and Sewell in my personal draft rankings, and while Sewell has a little more upside, I felt - and still do - feel like he also has a lower floor. I felt like Jamar Chase and Slater were two of the safest picks in the entire draft.
