Joe Burrow’s 2019 season was one for the ages. He won the Heisman Trophy, threw a record 60 touchdown passes and led the LSU Tigers to a perfect 15-0 record and a national title.
Now, he’s the presumptive No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft, but he’s not done being amazing just yet.
College football insider Bruce Feldman shared a story from an LSU staffer that shows just how selfless Burrow is. Per the staffer, Burrow was upset that LSU’s pro day got suspended amid the coronavirus outbreak. The reason? He wants to make sure the guys who didn’t get to go to the NFL Combine have a chance to shine:

Obviously, as pro days get rescheduled or outright canceled, it hurts the players who didn’t get invited to Indianapolis. However, there’s still time.
And, with guys like Burrow driving things, the pro days could get rescheduled as soon as it’s safe.
