Burrow, who found great success at LSU, was at Ohio State before he transferred, which is where he and Bosa hit it off. Now, the two will square off as Bengals and 49ers players, respectively.

Not before Nick Bosa issued a friendly threat to Joe Burrow. This comes after Bosa said he hates all quarterbacks, though he did make an exception when it comes to the Bengals' signal-caller. However, don't expect the 49ers star to ease up if he has Burrow in his sights on Sunday.

After all, as 49ers star Nick Bosa out it, Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is “a good friend who he'd definitely like to hit a few times.”
