Bengals QB Joe Burrow talks about whether he influenced the team's major moves this offseason.

One of the popular theories around the Cincinnati Bengals this offseason is that Joe Burrow threw his weight around while demanding change. Ask Burrow? No chance.

Burrow spoke with reporters during voluntary workouts and shot down the notion that he had a major hand in the all-in offseason. In fact, he even noted that he was less involved than in years past. “I would say if anything, I was less involved this year than in years past,” Burrow said, according to Paul Dehner Jr.

of The Athletic. “There’s no secret that the last several years didn’t go the way we wanted to, and there’s a lot of blame to go around for that, myself included. And so, we’re in a great spot this year.

We brought in great people and great players. You can feel the vibes of the locker room. The energy is elevated right now.
