Burrow dealing with back tightness but expected to play vs. Texans.

Burrow is dealing with back tightness after Week 1 win over Tampa Bay and made no significant throws in Wednesday's open practice, relying on mental reps instead. He wasn't sure about his practice workload but expressed comfort with mental prep, and coach Zac Taylor showed no concern. Burrow was able to throw on Thursday. He will face Houston's edge rushers Danielle Hunter and Will Anderson Jr. in a tough test, though the source reports the back injury won't keep him from playing this weekend against the Texans.
