Joe Burrow delivers an all-time comeback when NFL reporter asks QB if he’s nervous about starting as rookie
Published:
Joe Burrow may be the one that’s new to the NFL but the reporter that asked the reigning Heisman Trophy winner a question recently was the one that came off as the inexperienced one.
During a recent press conference, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft was asked about his confidence level heading into his first season with the Bengals.
Here is a transcript of the exchange between Burrow and the reporter:
Joe Burrow: “Very confident. I feel very comfortable with the offense right now. I feel comfortable with my guys. I think we are going to be pretty good on offense. I’m excited more so than nervous.”
Reporter: “Does that emotion surprise you? That you aren’t nervous, I mean, it’s human nature, starting a new job like this.”
Joe Burrow: “Absolutely not. Have you ever heard anything else about me about being nervous?”
Clearly, the reporter didn’t keep up with Burrow’s time in Baton Rouge.
