Other teammates reacted to Burrow’s return in a video the Bengals’ official Twitter account posted Thursday.

“He has total control over the offense, and he’s just a calm dude,” Ja’Marr Chase said. “He just knows how to stay positive about the whole situation. He’s still coaching everyone when he’s on the side. I think that’s the biggest thing about him playing his role and being a leader.”

Ted Karras and Tee Higgins also commented on Burrow’s return, talking about the expectations for the team.
