At first glance, the Bengals reuniting Thaddeus Moss and Ja’Marr Chase with Joe Burrow was thought to primarily benefit Moss and Chase. Two young pass-catchers can start their careers with the quarterback they popped off with in college. What better situation could they ask for?
Little did we know how much Burrow needed both of them, especially Moss.
Burrow was medically cleared to play at the start of training camp, but it took a little time for him to truly become the quarterback he was before. There was a stretch at the beginning of camp where he looked a bit uncomfortable in the pocket and wasn’t hitting throws he normally would’ve.
