Posted January 3Jan 3 comment_1781165 By Myles Simmons Published January 3, 2025 04:06 PM Bengals receiver Jermaine Burton’s rookie season has come to an early end. Cincinnati announced Burton will not travel to Pittsburgh and has been downgraded to out for the Week 18 matchup due to a coach’s decision. Burton, a third-round pick in the 2024 draft, was inactive for a game earlier this season after missing a walk-through. He’s caught just four passes for 107 yards in 14 games this season, playing 131 offensive snaps and 37 special teams snaps. But he hasn’t received a target since the Nov. 17 loss to the Chargers. The Bengals need to win on Saturday night and have the Broncos and Dolphins lose on Sunday to clinch the final AFC playoff spot. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/jermaine-burton-wont-travel-with-bengals-play-week-18-due-to-coachs-decision

In this case, I'd be morbidly curious to see the footage inside Bwaldimore's & Pittsburgh's when we picked Burton just to see if they were high-fiving or rolling on the floor laughing.
January 3Jan 3 comment_1781178 The smash-the-female-fan-on-the-field should have been, at the very least, made for a very long analysis of this guy’s brain. But TJ said “he’s cool”…so no problemo. He evidently goes through periods of obedience, so the toss at the dart board is murkier. He’s got a seriously long climb out of this year, in order to even be of consideration for next season.
January 3Jan 3 comment_1781179 Even without this I had them taking a late round WR anyway just because Charlie Jones cant stay healthy and we cut Irwin so the likelihood was there. This makes it even more likely.
January 3Jan 3 comment_1781180 He must have had one hella New Year's Eve. What a fool. Looked good returning kick offs, too.
January 3Jan 3 comment_1781184 The TJ thing was always funny to me because he was mentoring him already and he was still a fuckup. So it wasn't helping.

January 4Jan 4 comment_1781196 Budgeting is hard. Who knew he could spend his signing bonus in 3 months?
January 4Jan 4 comment_1781199 In case you were wondering...the rents in that building are $1500 to $3000. What's his weekly paycheck?
January 4Jan 4 comment_1781200 Has he ever been definitively pegged a Coaches, FO, or Ownership pick? If he was an ownership pick and Zac reacted with the kind of glee he did when they put in the card for him, I'd be even more concerned than I already am, which is extremely.
January 4Jan 4 comment_1781203 Since Zac became hc there haven't been many picks with character issues let's keep it that way
