Burton reeled in one of his two targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 26-25 loss to the Chiefs.
Burton's lone catch Sunday was his first of the season. The rookie played just 10 of the Bengals' 64 offensive snaps in the contest, leaving him limited opportunities to establish a more prominent role in the passing game. Burton is buried on Cincinnati's wide receiver depth chart, and with veteran teammate Tee Higgins (hamstring) nearing a return from injury, the first-year wideout will likely continue to see inconsistent playing time. The Bengals host the Commanders in Week 3.
