It didn’t take long for Cincinnati Bengals rookie wideout Colbie Young to be impressed by Joe Burrow.
Both Burrow and Young were in Cincinnati this week for early work ahead of OTAs.
Burrow impressed the rookie, not just with his throws, but the work the star quarterback was putting in all over the field in May in the pursuit of being great.
“His throws are perfect, honestly,” Young told Bengals radio host Dan Hoard. “He’s one of the best quarterbacks in the league and the way he takes time out of his day to perfect his craft just shows the effort he puts in to win.”
Young is pretty hyped in his own right. He was a fourth-round pick the Bengals this year and is a 6’4” weapon potentially capable of making plays down the field similar to Tee Higgins.
That’s getting ahead of things, of course. But with Higgins and Ja’Marr Chase training away from the team before mandatory work, Young got a chance to get some serious work with Burrow.
Hoard provided the footage, too:
