AFC Notes: Joe Burrow, Wyatt Teller, Bengals, Browns, Ravens

Bengals

Bengals second-year WR Andrei Iosivas said heโ€™s established trust with Joe Burrow following his rookie season. 

โ€œTrust is built now,โ€ Iosivas said, via Ben Baby of ESPN. โ€œWhatever you can do to get trust from everybody in the offensive room, you gotta do it.โ€

Bengalsโ€™ third-round WR Jermaine Burton said Burrow interjects during practice to harp on the details to receivers. 

โ€œA quarterback like Joe, heโ€™s really detailed on those things,โ€ Burton said. โ€œThose are just things you gotta pay attention to.โ€

Bengals WR Trenton Irwin is entering his sixth year in Cincinnati. He mentioned it is important to be โ€œon the same pageโ€ with Burrow 

โ€œOne of the biggest things is being on the same page as Joe,โ€ Irwin said. โ€œIf youโ€™re on the same page as Joe, Joe can do special things and the team can do special things.โ€

Browns

After the Titans hired HC Brian Callahan from Cincinnati, former Browns OL coach Bill Callahan followed his son to Tennessee. Cleveland RG Wyatt Teller described the differences with new OL coach Andy Dickerson.

โ€œI would say Bill was pretty hands-on,โ€ Teller said, via Chris Easterling of the Akron Beacon Journal. โ€œHeโ€™d get in your face if you messed up. But very much so itโ€™s just a very different energy. โ€ฆ But coach Andy, heโ€™s awesome. Heโ€™s getting after us, making sure weโ€™re running, making sure weโ€™re going to the right places and everything like that.โ€

โ€œThat doesnโ€™t change from coach to coach. But, yeah, itโ€™s a little bit of a transition. Itโ€™s different, but at the end of the day, he learned under Bill. So a lot of his techniques, a lot of his jargon is Billโ€™s stuff.โ€
