But did the young quarterback from Athens, Ohio think about forcing the Bengals’ hand into allowing him to play elsewhere?

According to Burrow, the answer is no.

“I never thought about telling the Bengals not to draft me or anything like that,” Burrow said in his Monday press conference. “I was just happy to be in the position that I was in, being the potential No. 1 pick. That was exciting for me. I would never throw that opportunity away.”

Yeah that quote was in the OP by Pally and it is why it is a non-story.  Also he said pretty much the same thing before the draft that he wasn't even thinking about refusing to play if drafted by the Bengals.   Florio just can't admit when he is wrong so he doubles down on stuff like that for views. I can't stand the guy and not just because of the way he has talked about the Bengals in the past. He just seems like a troll to me and has a lot of bad takes across the NFL. But that's what got his site acquired by NBC I guess and keeps him in work, clicks and views.
