Burks has been Ryan Tannehill's "favorite target" at OTAs, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. "It seems like Tannehill connects with Burks at the start of every period, and I haven't seen Burks drop a ball intended for him yet in the open OTAs," Wyatt wrote.
Burks got off on the wrong foot after he was picked in the first round of last year's draft, battling asthma and conditioning issues while missing practices in the offseason. He's in a much better place entering 2023, and with the Titans having now moved on from Robert Woods, Burks will likely be relied upon for big production in a receiving corps that's mostly lacking in established options. If he's able to stay healthy, Burks should run away with the team lead for targets this season.
