BB Love Entertainment is back!
Following Wednesday’s joint practice between the Carolina Panthers and the New York Jets, outside linebacker Brian Burns literally joined the scrum—finding a seat amongst media members during quarterback Bryce Young’s presser. While moonlighting as a reporter, the two-time Pro Bowl pass rusher wanted to know a bit more about, well, himself . . .

This wasn’t the first time Burns tried his hand at the job. During last summer’s edition of training camp—almost a year to the day, in fact—he crashed former Panthers running back Christian McCaffrey’s post-practice party.
And just as he did with Young, Burns asked about Burns . . .

Microphones aside, Burns was one of the session’s standout stars—picking up multiple (would-be) sacks during the 11-on-11 portion of the outing against the Jets offense. The rookie shined as well, completing 14 of his 22 attempts while displaying his highly-acclaimed holy trinity of poise, pocket presence and playmaking ability.
