Say goodbye to one of the last NFL stadiums to be without a sponsored name.
Bye-bye, Paul Brown Stadium. Hello … Paycor Stadium.

This means the Bengals franchise will make a ton of money, and that’s good news for them, because as so many NFL fans noted on Twitter, Joe Burrow is still on a rookie contract. And at some point in the near future, he’s going to need to get a sizable raise:
So many of the same jokes
