Another day, another Joe Burrow-Cincinnati story. It looks as if the former LSU QB is already feeling like he needs to pressure the organization to commit to winning before he comes to town. Burrow has been listening to people around him and is allegedly keeping his options open on potentially refusing to play and forcing Cincy to trade him.

Here are the details on Joe Burrow possibly not wanting to play for the Bengals:

“I do have leverage,” Burrow told the Fort Worth Star-Telegram. “They have their process and I have my process. We haven’t even gotten to the (NFL Scouting) Combine yet. There’s a lot of things that happen leading up to the draft and a lot of information gathered.

“Right now, I’m focused on being the best football player I can be. I’m in this unique spot. You can go watch my film. I don’t have to prove myself at pro day and at the combine, so I’m in a unique spot where I can focus on getting ready for the year.”

Credit to Joe for keeping his foot on the organization’s necks. Always keep your options open in life. No one is going to take care of you like you will!
