2020 NFL Draft: Joe Burrow Willing to Play in Cincinnati

Error 0:

One of the biggest questions going into this pre-draft process was whether or not Heisman Trophy winner and National Championship MVP Joe Burrow would be willing to play for the Cincinnati Bengals, the team who holds the top pick in the 2020 NFL Draft on April 25.

The answer is now known. He’s ready to “talk ball” with whichever team drafts him.

That solves one of the three slots ahead of the New York Giants, who select fourth overall. The Ames, Iowa native was thought to be on the fence about playing for the Bengals, and it was being bandied about that he could do what Eli Manning did in 2004 when the San Diego Chargers insisted on selected him with the top pick.
