"Those are two huge losses for us that … you can't really replace with just two guys," Burrow continued. "It's going to have to be by committee, and so Jack (Endries) will get certainly some more reps. So, (I'm) excited to see what he can do and how he can keep improving and growing, and then we'll see where we go from there."
