Who is Joe Burrow and how did he land a place in the NFL?

Burrow is the starting quarterback for the Cincinnati Bengals. He was drafted first overall in the 2020 NFL Draft by the Bengals. Burrow was well accomplished as a college football player, but his path to stardom didn’t start out how he intentionally wanted it to.

Coming out of high school, Burrow committed to Ohio State University to play college football. Growing up in Athens, Ohio, Burrow spent three seasons at Ohio State and redshirted his first year. Although he sat out for a year, Burrow didn't lose a year of eligibility. Burrow spent his second and third year as a backup quarterback and eventually decided that it was time to move on from Ohio State.

The Ohio native graduated from OSU in three years with a bachelor’s degree in Consumer and Family Financial Services. He also had two years of eligibility left to play college football and transferred to Louisiana State University to play football as a graduate transfer student. That’s when his college football career really took off, as he was the starting quarterback for his last two seasons.

In the 2019 college football season, Burrow broke various records, including the single-season records for total passing touchdowns (60), total yards of offense (6,039), and total touchdowns responsible for (65). The QB led LSU to an undefeated 15–0 season in 2019. LSU was ranked as the number one team in the country towards the end of the season.

The team won the national championship over Clemson that year. Burrow won a plethora of awards including the Heisman Trophy, which is the most prestigious award in college football. The award goes to the top player in the country.

Joe Burrow has invested in the electric vehicle industry.

Being the number one pick in the 2020 Draft, Burrow had many endorsem*nts to choose from. While he could have chosen to sign with a more widely known automotive company, Burrow chose to partner with Ohio-based Lordstown Motors after he was drafted.

Lordstown Motors is an electric vehicle company that went public in October 2020, which was a few months after Burrow signed his rookie deal with the Bengals. Lordstown said that it began releasing its first batch of vehicles in 2022 and would continue through the first half of 2023.
