As someone who has previously never been interested in the NFL, I found myself wondering why people would be so invested in this sport. However, this football season, that has all changed thanks to the witty and cute moments by one man … Joe Burrow.

Joe plays Super Smash Bros

Have you ever wondered what a professional football player does in his free time? In a post-game interview, a reporter asked what Joe does when he’s not playing games. Joe replied, “Probably playing some Super Smash. No football on, I don’t know what to do.” How could you not love a multi-talented Bengals player?

Joe is basically a physics scholar

Listen, if someone can nerd out about physics, I am instantly impressed. In an interview, Joe said, “I watch a lot of videos about relativity, quantum mechanics, black holes, wormholes, white holes, electrons, neutrons, neutron stars. So all that stuff.” How could you not love an academic Bengals player?

joe prefers a salad as a pre-Lasagna appetizer

Apparently, Joe’s friends made fun of him a few years ago for choosing a salad appetizer over fried chicken. As someone who also prefers a salad before eating lasagna, I resonated with Joe’s struggles. Thus, I became even more of a Bengals fan.

JOe is Highkey a fashion icon

Personally, I love a man that knows how to dress well. And Joe Burrow does just that! Dayton Daily News lists his top fashion moments, and I have to say the Cartier glasses are my favorite! He definitely knows how to pull off the trends.
