QB Joe Burrow throws a TD pass in his first game since wrist surgery, but Bucs beat Bengals 17-14

Associated Press  

CINCINNATI — The Bengals saw all they needed to see of Joe Burrow in their first series against Tampa Bay on Saturday night. In his first game action in nearly nine months, Cincinnati’s franchise quarterback directed a 73-yard drive, tossed a touchdown pass to Tee Higgins and then walked off the field. “I thought he handled it really well, and those guys made plays for him.” The first and last passes of the drive were to Higgins, one of the few other Bengals’ offensive starters to play. Center Graham Barton, Tampa Bay’s first-round pick, saw significant action, helping blow out the middle of the Bengals’ defensive line on Irving’s touchdown.
