Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow wasn’t too thrilled exiting the first day of training camp.
Considering the weapons on offense the Bengals have returning around him, Burrow wanted to see more of a “seamless” session from his unit.
Even so, Burrow made sure to pad his desire for perfection with the understanding that it was, in fact, just Day 1.
“When we have guys back like we do, you know, it should be seamless,” Burrow said, according to the AP. “Year in and year out, game in and game out. It wasn’t today. So we’ll watch the tape and get better from that, but you know, we have the guys in the room that have done it before, and that feels good.”

Burrow’s offense saw Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and Mike Gesicki get new deals this offseason. The guard spots in front of him, though, remain in flux now that new guys like Lucas Patrick and rookie Dylan Fairchild are in the mix to start.
Again, though, Day 1. Burrow knows it. But fans also know that this drive for improvement from all around him is part of the reason Burrow has climbed the ladder and sits where he does amongst his peers.
