Joe Burrow comments on Jayden Daniels, LSU jersey drama
Even Joe Burrow got asked about the apparent beef between LSU and Jayden Daniels.
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, like many of his team’s supporters, appears to have been largely oblivious to the controversy surrounding LSU quarterback Jayden Daniels. After the Bengals’ preseason victory against the Detroit Lions, Burrow engaged with reporters and expressed curiosity about LSU’s decision to not reuse his No. 9 jersey.
This prompted a fan to send a cease-and-desist letter to LSU, requesting they refrain from using Daniels’ name, image, or likeness. The ensuing media frenzy led to unverified speculation that LSU’s starting QB DJ Pickett might switch his jersey number to No. 5, Daniels’ previous number at LSU. Despite the attention, Burrow appears to be taking the situation in stride, acknowledging that he remains a more significant figure in college football than Daniels.
