He's not just all Hollywood and a drama queen.
I won't be mad at him if he takes them eventually after we win a Super Bowl, but just saying his focus is on football right now.
I do wonder if he's just holding out for the biggest deals since Cinci is such a small media market.
Joe has national appeal already. He is a very recognizable nationally with one of the most sold jerseys. He has been written up on fashion pages for his style and has cool nicknames that could tie in with lots of products.
He does have national deals with Bose, Kroger, Lowes, fanatics, and Nike. We just don't see his face all over the place like Aaron Rodgers or some other players. I think he is very selective about what he endorses
I've always gotten the feeling from Joe that while he is very comfortable with his close friends and teammates, he is basically a reserved introvert and is not a real fan of being in front of the cameras as anything but a football player
Winning makes believers of us all
