Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow had nothing but good things to say during mandatory minicamp after the team released linebacker Germaine Pratt. The Bengals released Pratt in a cost-cutting measure after the veteran requested his release back in February, but only after revamping the position via free agency and the draft.

Joe Burrow has emphasized making aggressive throws downfield during practices this summer, and offensive coordinator Dan Pitcher said that he's seeing improvement out of the star quarterback.

The first day of mandatory minicamp for the Cincinnati Bengals was notable for those not fully participating and not present.
