Bengals release WR Jermaine Burton, who was suspended for Week 14
The Cincinnati Bengals are releasing wide receiver Jermaine Burton on Monday, according to head coach Zac Taylor. Burton's release comes after he was suspended for Sunday's loss to the Buffalo Bills in Week 14. It's unclear exactly why the Bengals suspended the 24-year-old, but it was most likely a disciplinary measure. The former third-rounder in 2024 out of Alabama came out of college with questions about his maturity, and they have followed him to the NFL. Burton has not played at all in 2025 after catching just four of 14 targets for 107 yards and no touchdowns in 14 games (one start) in 2024 in his first NFL season. He will now head to waivers and will get a fresh start elsewhere
The Bengals waived Burton on Monday. Burton was suspended by the Bengals for Sunday's contest against the Bills, and now the team has elected to part ways with the 2024 third-rounder. Burton has yet to see regular-season action this season
