It was Burrow's first game action since last November. He treated the performance with an even keeled manner, the big show starts in a month.

"It was nice to score that touchdown," Burrow said. "Had a little help but it was a nice start. ... Not much of an adrenaline rush I'd say. Not like Week One. I knew I wasn't playing a ton. But it was nice to get back out there."

Zac Taylor liked what he saw from the franchise quarterback.

"Thought he looked sharp," Taylor said. "We'll obviously watch the tape, but I thought he was in control, and saw the defense really well. We're not sitting there just digesting all the Tampa Bay tape to make sure we can attack him, but I thought he handled it really well, and those guys made plays for him."
