CINCINNATI – In the 2024 NFL Draft, the Bengals chose Jermaine Burton with the 80th overall choice.
Joe Burrow was quick to get in touch with his newest wide-out. Shortly after being selected by the Bengals, the great quarterback texted his rookie receiver.
“This is Joey B. The text said, “Whenever you’re free, reach out to me and we can work on some projects,” according to Bengals.com’s Geoff Hobson.
Burrow might have the most explosive weapons he’s ever had since joining the NFL in 2020, so don’t look now.
While Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins are well-known, Burton provides them with another downfield winner. At Alabama, he averaged 20.5 yards per catch the previous season. The three should exert a lot of force on the defenses of the opposition.
