“We’ve Put a Lot of Work in, to Get to This Moment”: Joe Burrow on Having the Opportunity to Play in the Super Bowl

Joe Burrow has been the NFL sensation this year. Coming up from an ACL injury and taking the Cincinnati Bengals to their first Super Bowl appearance, ending a 33-year drought has been quite a story. However, it was not just him, but the whole team that has just awe-struck the entire league by their resilience and commitment. 

Burrow surprised all and snatched the spotlight out of all the rookies that were under it earlier this season. And it seems that this spotlight will stay focused on him for quite a lot of time. The 25-year-old has gained a reputation for himself with his trademark poised and composed attitude on and off the field. 

But this is it now; all the hard work, commitment, and resilience boil down to this moment. The Super Bowl is here, and it is not going to be easy. Especially not for the Bengals, who will be up against the most complete team in the NFL, the Los Angeles Rams. Considering the fact that Burrow has been the most sacked quarterback and the Rams the third most sacking team in the NFL, their face-off is going to be action-packed.

Now in college, and coming up, so I feel like I’ve earned my place here, but now I’m excited for the opportunity.”

It has been quite a delight to watch the young quarterback make his way to the top and also build an impressive fanbase in his way.
