In this story:

CINCINNATI — Bengals star quarterback Joe Burrow is at radio row on Thursday ahead of Super Bowl LIX. Naturally, he was asked about the future of Cincinnati's biggest stars.

Ja'Marr Chase and Trey Hendrickson have one year left on their current contracts and are extension eligible. Tee Higgins is set to become a free agent next month.

Does Burrow have confidence in the Bengals' front office going into such a crucial offseason? Does he believe they'll do what it takes to keep Chase, Hendrickson and Higgins long-term?

"I do. I do," Burrow said on Breakfast Ball on FS1. "We have the cap space to get it done. I want to make it happen. Everybody involved Trey, Tee, Ja’Marr, Mike G, we all want to stay together. When you have guys that are motivated like that I think you can get those things done.”

Burrow was also asked about a possible restructure, which would be a no-brainer for him if it means giving the Bengals more flexibility.

"Of course," Burrow said when asked if he'd be open to restructuring.

It's worth noting that a restructure would help the Bengals from an accouting/salary cap standpoint. It doesn't change the amount of money Burrow will get on his contract and it's more about how the Bengals and the NFL accounts for it.

There was never a time that he wasn't open to a restructure. It's all about the Bengals and whether or not they want to go that route this offseason.

Burrow is confident that they'll keep their stars. All eyes remain on the Bengals' front office.
