The Bengals after downing the No. 1 seeded Tennessee Titans in the Divisional Round have now headed to Kansas City to meet the Chiefs in the Arrowhead Stadium this Sunday. The Bengals are expected to give the Chiefs a tough time at home. The clash between the two beast quarterbacks is going to be a must-see this Sunday.

Is Joey a Chiefs fan?

However recently Burrow’s father, Jimmy Burrow, took to social media to reflect upon his precious times with his son. However, that throwback photo was like no other. In that picture, the Bengals’ beast QB was seen donning the signature Chiefs helmet over a cute little face staring back at the camera.

“Joe use to like those shiny red chiefs helmets. Not anymore. Geaux Bengals,” the caption read. Joey B was certainly a Chiefs fan during his childhood days but look how fate has resulted in the franchise getting in the way of his first Super Bowl. Joe has been a force to reckon this season and has led his franchise to new heights.
