Joe Burrow is set to begin his sixth season as the starting quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals this fall. The 28-year-old, born in Ames, Iowa, played college football at Ohio State and LSU before being selected with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Burrow led the Bengals to the Super Bowl in the 2021 season, where they fell to the Los Angeles Rams. Cincinnati followed that up with a strong 2022 campaign, but has missed the playoffs the past two seasons.
On Tuesday, the NFL posted a comparison photo showing Burrow at the beginning of his career and now, heading into Year 6:
".@JoeyB: Year 1 Year 6"
Fans were quick to react to the evolution of Burrow's look:
"still cute as ever," declared one enamored fan.
"he just gets prettier and prettier," said another fan.
"0 MVPs 0 Rings 25 hair style changes," joked someone else.
Another fan added, "You can't even use the 'beard grown' graphic for joe burrow."

The 2024 season was a strong one for Burrow personally. He posted 4,918 yards and 43 touchdowns, leading the NFL in both categories. The 6-foot-4 signal caller finished the regular season on a hot streak, guiding the Bengals to five straight wins.
Over those final five games, he passed for 13 touchdowns with just 4 interceptions. For his career, Burrow has completed 68.6% of his passes for 19,001 yards, 140 touchdowns and 46 interceptions.
Cincinnati begins its preseason schedule on August 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Bengals open the regular season on September 7, hitting the road to face the Cleveland Browns.

Ex-NFL star Richard Sherman charged with DUI— second time he's faced drunk driving charges
Super Bowl champion Richard Sherman has been charged with driving under the influence more than a year after he was arrested in Washington state — the second time the defensive back has faced drunk driving charges. The former Seattle Seahawk was charged with refusing to take a breath test — defined as a gross misdemeanor in the state — which could lead to a harsher penalty, the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office told The Seattle Times. Sherman was pulled over by a Washington State trooper on I-405 just before 2 a.m. on Feb. 24, 2024, but not charged until Tuesday. 3 Richard Sherman sits on set of the Amazon Prime Thursday Night Football before an NFL football game between the Pittsburgh Steelers and the New England Patriots on Dec. 7, 2023. AP The 37-year-old had been driving 79 mph in a 60 mph zone while 'bouncing back and forth within the lane it was traveling in,' according to police. Once he pulled over, Sherman told troopers he'd had two margaritas and refused to do a breathalyzer test, The Seattle Times reported. He did, however, agree to do some voluntary tests leading police to conclude he was under the influence and take him into custody, Police acquired a signed warrant to draw Sherman's blood roughly two hours after he was pulled over, which showed his blood-alcohol level of about 0.11, above the legal limit of 0.08. The charges were not filed until Tuesday — the day after the prosecutor's office received the blood test results from the crime lab, the report said. Sherman, 35, was previously arrested for drunk driving and domestic disturbance charges in July 2021 after police said the former Seahawk crashed his car into a construction zone then attempted to break into his in-laws' home outside of Seattle. 3 Sherman takes part in warmups before an NFL football game against the Denver Broncos, Sunday, Sept. 21, 2014, in Seattle. AP 3 Sherman celebrates after intercepting a pass by Arizona Cardinals quarterback Carson Palmer at CenturyLink Field in Seattle, on Dec. 22, 2013. MCT The case was settled in March 2022 when Sherman pleaded guilty in Seattle to two misdemeanor charges. Sherman played for the Seahawks from 2011 to 2017, helping lead the team to Super Bowl XLVIII in 2014. He later played three seasons with the San Francisco 49ers and one brief season with the Tampa Bay Bucaneers before he retired after the 2021 season. He has since worked as a pre and postgame analyst for Prime Video's 'Thursday Night Football' since 2022 and as a panelist on FS1's 'Undisputed.'

CEO behind Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers' F7 Pro helmet responds to veteran frustration
Old habits die hard — and this couldn't be more true than for Aaron Rodgers, who had his longtime helmet model banned by the NFL this offseason. Rodgers wasn't thrilled about the switch to the newer, safer, and more innovative F7 Pro — and let reporters know about it at media availability. Advertisement I recently had the opportunity to interview Certor Sports CEO Jeremy Erspamer about the F7 Pro model — and here's what he had to say in regard to veteran players, like Rodgers, giving up their old helmets: 'I feel for players like Aaron Rodgers,' Erspamer said. 'He's worn that same helmet model basically his entire career. As he said, he's never been hurt in it. I'm sure it feels like an old friend when he puts it on his head. I completely understand, from a player's perspective, that potentially causing frustration. I also understand the desire of the NFL — and for us, as helmet manufacturers — trying to develop new technology. Technology is evolving probably quicker than most people think. And the ability to protect athletes better comes along with that.' Rodgers will have plenty of time this offseason to adjust to the state-of-the-art F7 Pro — but his feedback remains valuable to Erspamer and Certor Sports as they refine both existing and in-development models.
