Joe Burrow and the Bengals have been preparing all week to take on the Chiefs in the AFC championship game on Sunday. However, rather than pouring over even more tape or discussing the gameplan in excruciating detail, Cincinnati’s franchise quarterback has a different plan for Saturday’s flight to Kansas City: play Super Smash Bros.
That’s right: Joe Burrow is a fan of the Nintendo classic.
Speaking to reporters Friday, Burrow admitted that with no other football games on Saturday, he and a few of his teammates will likely fire up Super Smash Bros. and play during their time in the air. The 26-year-old said that he’s played the game on a handful of occasions during team flights this season.
