Joe Burrow opens up on Trey Hendrickson's situation in the Cincinnati Bengals but not all fans are happy about it
Recently, Joe Burrow was spotted at the Cincinnati Bengals' first day of minicamp but Trey Hendrickson remained missing from it.
After the minicamp, Joe Burrow was asked about Trey Hendrickson's situation and the star player said, "Last year we had two (distractions) This year we have one. That's definitely less. You'd love to have none but, you know, that's life in the NFL. We're all supporting Trey, and would love for him to be back."
But Joe Burrow's words have not gone down well with his fans. A fan wrote, 'Mr. Excuses back at it again', while another fan commented, 'wow burrow can't count to 2? or he just forget about that 1st round bust already?'
A third fan wrote, 'Kinda disappointed in Joe.. put the same emphasis on the front office to sign Trey as you did Tee and Jamarr. I expected more.. But that's just me and this is business'.
However, some fans have also supported Joe Burrow.

A fan wrote, 'I love Joe because he's always trying to get his guys paid. This is the answer that gives Trey a bit more leverage.'
Another fan wrote, '#Bengals front office, is putting Joe Burrow in such a tough spot, every year, for absolutely no reason… Trey deserves to be paid, he was there with the team, when others weren't. He is a leader on that defense, as they continue to dismantle the D. Pay him 🙏🏽'
The mystery around Joe Burrow's rumoured relationship with Olivia Ponton
While Trey Hendrickson's contract dispute is yet to be solved, Joe Burrow's personal life has also been in the news.
A few weeks ago, at Coachella 2025, Joe Burrow was spotted getting out of a van that also had model Olivia Ponton sitting inside. While there were rumours of the two dating back in December 2024, their appearance at Coachella sparked such rumours again.
However, both Joe Burrow and Olivia Ponton have remained tight lipped about their dating lives.

'Dumb and Dumber' — Indiana Pacers fans trolling ESPN analysts Stephen A Smith and Kendrick Perkins during NBA Finals Game 4 go viral
Images via Getty Images and X Sometimes, the loudest message in a Finals game doesn't come from a superstar or a coach—it comes from the stands. During Game 4 of the 2025 NBA Finals at Gainbridge Fieldhouse, while most fans rocked gold Pacers shirts, two individuals turned heads with bold fashion choices straight out of a comedy classic. Dressed in Dumb and Dumber-style tuxedos—one bright orange, one electric blue—they topped it off with oversized face cutouts of ESPN's Stephen A. Smith and Kendrick Perkins. It was a hilarious, pointed response to recent media criticism of Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton—and fans online immediately took notice. Tyrese Haliburton fires back at critics, Stephen A. Smith takes it personally in fiery rant The media heat on Tyrese Haliburton started after Game 2, when he was criticized for his passiveness in a 107–123 Pacers loss. On 'First Take', ESPN's Stephen A. Smith didn't hold back. 'Win the damn chip, bro… That ain't on me. That's on you,' he said, implying Haliburton wasn't delivering when it mattered. Smith continued, 'Just in case he was talking about me—my brother, I'm not going away… this train don't stop.' Then came Game 3. Haliburton bounced back with 22 points, 11 assists, and 9 rebounds in a 116–107 Pacers win. After the game, he was asked about the media noise. He didn't name names but made his feelings clear: 'Most of the time, the talking heads on the major platforms, I couldn't care less honestly. Like, what do they really know about basketball?' Kendrick Perkins , speaking on NBA Today, gave Haliburton credit for stepping up. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like 5 Books Warren Buffett Wants You to Read In 2025 Blinkist: Warren Buffett's Reading List Undo 'He finally arrived to the NBA Finals—to us box score watchers,' Perkins said. He even acknowledged, 'He outplayed SGA.' And then came Game 4, when two fans used fashion to flip the script. Their orange and blue tuxes carried double meaning: orange symbolizing Smith's New York Knicks loyalty, and blue a nod to the Oklahoma City Thunder—Perkins' former team. It was comedy, commentary, and petty brilliance all rolled into one. Hilarious fan reactions to ' Dumb and Dumber ' trolling of Stephen A. Smith and Kendrick Perkins at Game 4 Fans took to X with no shortage of reactions to the trolling masterclass. One fan said: 'Absolutely incredible troll job by Pacers fans dressed as Stephen A. Smith and Kendrick Perkins. Dumb and Dumber tuxedos and all.' This tweet captured the moment perfectly and praised the fans for the elite-level trolling and creative execution. A second user chimed in with: 'Two guys in the front row at the Pacers game dressed like Dumb and Dumber with Stephen A Smith and Kendrick Perkins faces on their suits.' This user highlighted the boldness of the fans' courtside position, emphasizing how visible and intentional the troll job was. Another user joked: 'Are these two guys front row at the Pacers game calling Stephen A Smith and Kendrick Perkins Dumb and Dumber?' This tweet added playful speculation, bluntly asking if the fans were deliberately labeling the ESPN duo as the classic comedy characters. One more said: 'Best thing I've seen tonight…. Dumb and Dumber at the Pacer game tonight!' This comment called the bit the highlight of the evening—more memorable than even the on-court action for some viewers. And finally, another user said: 'Pretty sure these fans are in Dumb and Dumber costumes…with face cutouts of Stephen A Smith and Kendrick Perkins.' This tweet added to the confirmation and appreciation of the stunt, acknowledging the detail in the fans' outfits and execution.

It became a statement on media narratives, on confidence, and on the creative passion of Indiana's fan base. With subtle symbolism in every stitch of those tuxedos, the message was clear: Indiana hears the noise, and they know exactly how to laugh back. Whether the Pacers win the chip or not, their fans have already won the meme battle.

'Kathanar The Wild Sorcerer': to Aadu 3': 3D Wave in Mollywood
Mollywood is embracing 3D technology, with filmmakers exploring its potential beyond fantasy genres. 'Aadu 3' is venturing into 3D, showcasing this shift. Jonita Doda highlights the immersive experience of India's first 3D romantic film, 'Salmon 3D,' while Tovino Thomas acknowledges the challenges of 3D filming, emphasizing that content remains paramount, regardless of the format. (Picture Courtesy: Facebook) Watching a movie in 3D is always an immersive experience, despite some critics. Coming to Mollywood, the industry seems to be shifting its gears to a new realm, and the most basic one would be 3D movies. Let's take a look at the 3D wave happening in the Malayalam film industry. 'Aadu' venturing into 3D Jayasurya and Midhun Manuel Thomas' hit series 'Aadu 3' is reportedly in 3D format. This shows how the Malayalam filmmakers are pushing the boundaries of 3D by not only limiting it to fantasy or fictional movies. Director Midhun Manuel Thomas surely would have seen the scope of storytelling via 3D, enhancing the theatrical experience; otherwise, a talented scriptwriter and filmmaker like him wouldn't be opting for such a format. (Picture Courtesy: Facebook) 'It adds a new dimension to the cinematic experience' - Jonita Doda In an exclusive conversation with the actress Jonita Doda, who has been part of India's first-ever romantic 3D film 'Salmon 3D' revealed that it adds a whole new theatrical experience. Talking to ETimes, the 'Salmon 3D' actress said, 'The USP of our film lies in two key aspects. Firstly, it is India's first-ever romantic 3D stereoscopic film, which adds a whole new dimension to the cinematic experience. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Scam Exposed: What They Won't Tell You about zero trust!

Salmon 3D - Official Malayalam Trailer (Picture Courtesy: Facebook) 'Shooting with 3D cameras is a very tough thing to do' - Tovino Thomas Now let's move on to the production part of a 3D film. In a conversation with Mid Day, the 'ARM' actor Tovino Thomas said that shooting a movie in 3D is quite challenging. He said, 'Shooting with 3D cameras is a very tough thing to do. It takes more time and effort.' Coming to 'ARM', what the makers did was 3D conversion rather than shooting in 3D camera. He said, ''People won't be able to tell whether we shot it with 3D cameras or converted it later, because the technology has come so far. We already have clear guidelines on how to shoot for 3D conversion — there's a specific approach to follow, and our cinematographer was fully aware of that from the start.' Do all films require 3D? Well, the answer would be a clear NO! While 3D may enhance the theatre-viewing experience, not all stories are perfect that way. There may be several sequences added just for the sake of creating that 3D visual, and this would serve no purpose to the actual storyline. For a movie like 'My Dear Kuttichathan', 3D experience is well worth it. But if one were to pick a 3D format for a film like 'Drishyam', it would be a complete no and would feel complete injustice towards the content of the movie, unless there are some genuine reasons for adding 3D elements (hopefully there won't be any). Coming to the upcoming Jayasurya starrer 'Kathanar The Wild Sorcerer', it's quite sure that the 3D elements will work as everyone knows the storyline and how it can be perfectly suited for a 3D experience. Shooting in 3D or not, as we always say, the content of a movie matters.
