When Burton was healthy, I didn't even hear a thing about Irwin. Burton this, Burton that, impressing etc.
Since the tweaked ankle, crickets.

Then alas Burrow went out and almost immediately we had the ridiculous Stealer game where Browning was holding the ball too long and Yoshi burnt the secondary twice and was wide open for TDs but Browning failed to pull the trigger. His big issue area was catching the ball with his body and it sure seems he worked on that in offseason.
Having Yoshi and drafting Burton are why Chuck Sizzle being hurt is not as big an issue as it might have been.
Spot on, Burrow won't miss Iosivas like Browning did. Plus with how much Iosivas has improved in catching the ball with his hands away
from his body he might have a great preseason and even push for that WR3 spot especially with Burton and now Chuck hurt. Losing Chuck
hurts us the most on Punt Returns. We will see who will take up the PR duties with Chuck hurt now.
