1. An apparatus for wireless communications at a user equipment (UE), comprising:
one or more memories storing processor-executable code; and
one or more processors coupled with the one or more memories, wherein the one or more processors are individually or collectively configured to cause the UE to:
transmit acknowledgment feedback for a last transport block of a burst of transport blocks;
reduce a retransmission timer at the UE based at least in part on a timing of the last transport block with respect to a beginning of an inactive period for the UE;
monitor for a physical downlink control channel based at least in part on the reduced retransmission timer; and
enter a sleep mode based at least in part on the monitoring, the reduced retransmission timer, and the inactive period for the UE.
