Joe Burrow: 'If you don't have anything to say, don't manufacture something'

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow's confidence and work ethic allowed him to bounce back from a season-ending knee injury to lead his team from a 4-11-1 record in 2020 to a Super Bowl 56 appearance.

So it's sometimes easy to forget that he sat the bench for three seasons with the Ohio State Buckeyes before transferring to LSU, winning the Heisman Trophy and leading the Tigers to a national title ahead of the 2020 NFL Draft, when the Bengals made him the top overall pick.

On "Chris Simms Unbuttoned," Burrow discussed a number of topics with the NBC Sports NFL analyst and former quarterback, including his self-confidence, throwing motion, leadership qualities, grip of the ball, accuracy, arm strength and much more.
