Titans’ Treylon Burks had rough first day of rookie minicamp

Tennessee Titans 2022 first-round pick and wide receiver Treylon Burks had a rough first day of rookie minicamp, which began on Friday afternoon.

According to multiple beat writers on the ground, Burks looked gassed and had to leave the field early. He would later return during team period, but once again exited shortly thereafter. He was also spotted using an inhaler.

Obviously this is not how you want things to go for a rookie (and especially a first-round pick who has the kind of pressure on him that Burks has) in his practice debut, but let’s not get crazy here.

Everyone just take a deep breath and settle down; we’re going to be OK.

Treylon Burks: limited on 1st day of Titans rookie camp. 1st rounder laboring quite a bit early in individuals, later pulled. Had ice placed on his neck off to the side. Returned for few snaps in team period, then was taken inside building.

Interesting day for Titans 1st-rd pick Treylon Burks, who had to leave field during first individual drills, looked gassed. Had been using an inhaler. Returned from locker room for some snaps, but later went back inside.
