There were times during the 2025 NFL season that it seemed like Joe Burrow was feeling the weight of the world on his shoulders.<\/p>\n

Of course, it’s not easy to be an NFL quarterback, especially as the Cincinnati Bengals<\/a>‘ superstar experienced a lot of injury troubles.<\/p>\n

Still, it had people wondering how Burrow was doing, and if he’d look to force his way out of Cincy.<\/p>\n

Turns out, maybe some of that was overblown.<\/p>\n

Burrow was asked at the Pro Bowl if he’s still happy with the Bengals. His answer on Tuesday night was quite human, and also encouraging for Cincinnati fans.<\/p>\n

\u201cYeah, I am,” Burrow said<\/a>. “I think, you know, everybody has bad days, right?\u201d<\/p>\n

The QB then explained that he may not have had the best timing.<\/p>\n

\u201cSometimes, they fall on press conferences days,” Burrow said of the bad days. “… So that\u2019s how it goes sometimes.”<\/p>\n

Another fair point, really. Burrow is expected to be the face of the franchise at all times, talking to the media even when it might not be easy.<\/p>\n

Most NFL QBs handle that duty well, including Burrow.<\/p>\n

But sometimes, there are just things to get off your chest, and Burrow used some of his pressers to do that.<\/p>\n

He’s still uber-talented and has great wide receivers. The 2026 NFL season could be quite the bounceback. And Burrow isn’t going anywhere.<\/p>\n
