This is just so very exhausting.
Radio Host: "Ooooooooh Burrow doesn't seem too excited to play for Cincinnati!!"
Why would he be? He's not from Cincinnati. He didn't grow up a Bengals fan. Burrow may have his own preferences about where he'd like to play if given the choice, but he's conducted himself nothing but professionally so far throughout this process. He knows it's not up to him, he's happy to be in the conversation for the #1 overall pick, and he'll play for whatever team pays him to play football. Those are words straight from his mouth and his father's mouth. There's nothing to misconstrue here unless you're just willfully stirring up shit for clicks.
So Burrow isn't a hardcore Bengals fan. He doesn't have to be. Just come here and win us some games. I can live with that. A lot of players in the NFL don't have the luxury of being drafted by their dream team. This is such a non-story.

Everything in this post is my fault.
