That throw told me that Jalen had made his mind up before the snap that he was throwing to Brooks. He had the high/low read which was āwhatever the corner does is wrongā and with him bailing, Burton in the flat was the obvious throw.
May be spitballing here, but it was 3rd and goal as well and Jalen may have felt that he had to get the TD and didnāt take to heart Coach Sabanās words about every possession ending in a kick. Donāt get greedy!!!
