Burrow isn't ruined. Any QB coming back from injury (especially one caused by a sack) is going to need reps to get their pocket presence back to where it was. Palmer likewise needed reps when he came back to stop seeing ghosts back there.
I think we all need to take a deep breath and remember THIS IS TRAINING CAMP. Even more, they are not running live offensive plays but rather a predefined sequence as they are in the install stage of camp. The same thing applies to the OL where Hopkins and Jonah are back from injury, new starters at RT and RG and our LG was not on the roster this time last season. So 3 new starters. It will take time and reps for them to develop cohesion and to learn the new scheme from the new OL coach.
Which brings me to where I differ from some opinion - to me the starters need lots of preseason reps because of all the new players. With 3 preseason game instead of 4 I would be targeting at least 1 quarter in the first game and 2 quarters in each of the other two. And it is at least as if they are not doing it right they need to stay in until they do.
