Jermaine Burton

Jermaine Burton caught one pass for 11 yards in Thursday's 35-34 loss to the Baltimore Ravens.

Fantasy Impact

The rookie saw some solid involvement on Thursday after being a healthy scratch in Week 9. Still, he wasn't able to put up a good game. He caught just one out of his five targets and wasn't able to do much with it, leaving him with a low fantasy total on the night. We won't see much of him when Tee Higgins (quad) is back in the lineup, so fantasy managers shouldn't put much value on Burton for the foreseeable future.

Bengals WR Jermaine Burton (coaches decision) will be inactive for Sunday's game vs. the Raiders.

Fantasy Impact

After seeing 41 percent of the snaps last week, Burton will not play at all in Week 9. It appears that HC Zac Taylor needs to see more from the rookie WR first before Burton sees significant snaps in-game.

Jermaine Burton caught one pass for 47 yards in Sunday's 26-25 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.

Fantasy Impact

The rookie didn't get many opportunites on Sunday, but he made the most of his two targets, hauling in one of them for a 47-yard gain. There are some character concerns that keep him off of the field in Cincinnati, but Burton has shown us several times that he has a lot of talent and could be a contributor if all of the off-field issues get figured out.

Bengals WR Jermaine Burton is officially active for Week 1.

Fantasy Impact

Burton was dealing with a toe injury but is healthy enough to suit up against the Patriots. With Tee Higgins out, Burton should see an increased number of snaps in the season opener.

Jermaine Burton (toe) was a full participant at practice on Thursday.

Fantasy Impact

Burton was added to the injury report because of a toe injury, but it didn't stop him from full participating at practice on Thursday. He should be good to go for Week 1, but how much of a role he will play this season remains to be seen.
