As expected, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has reported to training camp with his fellow quarterbacks.
Burrow reported on Sunday and the team’s social media accounts provided a clip of him walking to the field for work. Quarterbacks and rookies reported for work ahead of full-blown training camp starting on Wednesday.
The arrival, of course, comes at a time when Burrow and the Bengals remain in talks about a long-term extension for the star passer.
Training camp has always felt like the expected time for a Burrow extension to get done. That train of thought recently got a boost with running back Joe Mixon taking a pay cut to remain with the team, which could kick off a domino effect across the roster.
Burrow reporting to camp amid extension talks isn’t a shocker, but it is welcome news that signals the football drought is over and an extension could happen soon.
