LOS ANGELES (WCMH) — Bengals’ fans will be ready to build a Joe Burrow statue if he can lead the team to a Super Bowl win this Sunday.
A statue may be far fetched for the Athens product who’s only in his second year, but Burrow would complete the Mount Rushmore of Ohio high school quarterbacks to win a Super Bowl.
You can watch Super Bowl LVI on NBC4.
