Brown is on the NFI list - had some tightness so they are going to ease him back. As a long-term veteran with some injury history - this is the right move.
Mims has been opening some eyes early in OTA's and will now get a chance to run as the 1 in camp. Tobin with some unusual high praise for the rookie stating he would not be surprised if he opens the season as the #1 RT...
On the Burrow front - the arm/wrist look to be in prime form. Had zero issues with zip or deep passes yesterday. Love that they will be working him out of the rotation with some rest days, and glad he's finally realizing that he doesn't need, nor should he take, every single rep in every single practice. The season is long, and primary guys who have been around awhile now just don't need all the reps.
Bullish on the Bengals defense this year. Love the Rankins' addition, plus I think the experience last year at DB will help everyone with the addition of Stone and re-addition of Bell to help add much needed experience. The key, IMO, is going to be Murphy taking that next step to generate more sacks from his pressure rate (which was 2nd behind Hendrickson last year).
