The Cincinnati Bengals, led by quarterback Joe Burrow, are headed to Super Bowl LVI this Sunday. They are arriving much earlier than expected in Burrow's already amazing career. This season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers became the next team of a long line of teams unable to repeat as champs. Bucs tight end Rob Gronkowski made a shocking admission Tuesday night.

While speaking at a Q & A for Autograph NFT's, Gronkowski was asked which quarterback he would like to play with assuming Tom Brady remains retired. Gronkowski did not mince his words, as noted by Masslive.com's Chris Mason.
“I kinda like this young buck quarterback. He’s in the Super Bowl now: It’s Joe Burrow, man. I watched him in college. I just love the way he presents himself out on the football field. In the pocket he’s just so calm and he just slings it out on the field.
“I just love his swag, too. If I had to pick a quarterback it’d be the young buck Joe Burrow,” Gronkowski reiterated. “He’s killing it right now in the game.”
People have already drawn comparisons between Burrow and Brady. Like the GOAT, Burrow is known for being cool, calm and collected under pressure. His belief in himself is unshakable. The Bengals QB is a very accurate passer who doesn't necessarily have the strongest arm.
