CINCINNATI — Bengals wide receiver Jermaine Burton didn't travel to Pittsburgh with the team on Friday. It was a decision head coach Zac Taylor made according to an official announcement from the team.

It's a must-win game for the Bengals. They've won four-straight and need to win on Saturday to keep their slim playoff chances alive.

Burton hasn't played a significant role on offense this season, but he is averaging 29.1 yards per return on kickoffs.

The rookie appeared to react to the news that he wasn't traveling with the team on Thursday afternoon. Check out his two posts on Instagram below:
