Former LSU football quarterback Joe Burrow got off to a terrific start as a rookie for the Cincinnati Bengals in 2020.

Burrow, who won the Heisman Trophy in 2019, tossed for 2,688 yards, 13 touchdowns, and only five interceptions in 10 games for the Bengals last season.

Those numbers put Burrow on pace for 4,288 passing yards, 21 touchdowns, and eight interceptions.

Anyone would sign up for those stats from a rookie quarterback — especially a rookie quarterback on a team that was coming off a 2-14 record in 2019.
