Joe Burrow grateful for Manning family mentoring

Back in April, we learned that Peyton Manning received a call from soon-to-be Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow. The two had met the previous summer when Burrow competed in the Manning Passing Academy, and the whole Burrow family met the whole Manning family.

During that April conversation, they talked about how to navigate through a rookie season as a starter, and who better to talk to than Manning, the guy that made about as many rookie mistakes as a rookie could make.

Peyton used to receive advice like this from his father, the great Archie Manning.
