National Personality Makes Wild Proclamation About Joe Burrow
CINCINNATI — Bengals star Joe Burrow signed a five-year, $275 million extension last September that made him the highest paid player in the NFL. His average salary over the contract is $55 million. Meanwhile, Lions quarterback Jared Goff just signed a four-year extension with an average salary of $53 million per season.
Colin Cowherd of Fox Sports says he would take Goff over Burrow.
"This is the hardest one. Burrow is better. Burrow has four-straight years with injuries. Goff never gets hurt. I'd go Goff," he said on The Herd With Colin Cowherd. "And I love Burrow, but aren't you concerned about Burrow's injuries? When's the last time he had a good September?"
"You're getting to a point with Joe Burrow where the injuries are a part of him. You have to bake it in," Cowherd added. "If you're asking me today who I would take, at this moment, it's Goff."
Cowherd was comparing Goff to the top quarterbacks in the NFL. Burrow is coming back from a serious wrist injury, but it's hard to envision any general manager in the NFL picking Goff over Burrow.
