LSU Football: How Joe Burrow spent NFL draft morning

LSU football quarterback Joe Burrow is about to experience the biggest thrill of his life on Thursday night.

Burrow, barring something completely unexpected, is going to be the first pick in the 2020 NFL Draft.

So how did the soon-to-be very rich quarterback spend draft morning?

Probably not how you’d expect.

Burrow, clad in a Super Mario sweatshirt and black sweatpants, joined his mom, an elementary school teacher, in the pledge of allegiance with his mom’s class (virtually, of course).

Burrow has been described by friends as a video game playing hermit that is likely thriving in coronavirus quarantine.
