WATCH: Joe Burrow throws to A.J. Green, Tyler Boyd, Alex Erickson and more
CINCINNATI — The Bengals began full team workouts this week. They have plenty of new faces, including No. 1 pick Joe Burrow.
The guys are able to lift weights in groups of 15 or less, do conditioning drills on the field and take part in daily full squad walkthroughs.
"We didn’t get a chance to go through the period in the spring and get acquainted with the rookies and the new free agents that we added," Bengals head coach Zac Taylor said earlier this week. "It feels like we’ve been Zooming, so we know these guys a lot better than we normally would, but it was good to see everybody out there. Everybody has obviously been in the playbook. They did a really good job. It was a really sharp first walk-through we had."
The Bengals released footage of Burrow throwing to A.J. Green, Tyler Boyd, Alex Erickson and other skill players on the roster. Watch that video below:
