Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is something of an international fashion icon after that back-less suit thing on a fashion runway in Paris over the summer—never mind the endless pregame fits that go viral.
But when it comes to Bengals jerseys? The man couldn’t care less—in a good way.
Ahead of Week 8 when his team plays the Philadephia Eagles, Burrow was asked about the Bengals using the “White Tiger” alternate jersey combo.
“It just doesn’t matter to me. It looks cool,” Burrow said. “I’d play in just about anything. I’m just happy to be out there.”
Fair enough.
But again, this love for the game, regardless of everything else, isn’t new. Burrow is, after all, the guy who just a few years ago said he’d “play in trash bags.”
