The Bengals selected Joe Burrow with the No. 1 pick in the NFL Draft. The 23 year old wants to be a great quarterback but also make the world a better place. Something he was able to do by spending 31 seconds of his Heisman speech discussing poverty and hunger. This speech led to a $500,000 donation for the Athen's County Food Bank.

Burrow was also the first Bengals player to speak out and give his opinion on racial injustice in America after George Floyd's death. Bengals owner Mike Brown begged players not to kneel during the national anthem back in 2017. So if Mike Brown has not changed his stance on this issue and Burrow continues to speak out, could there be a clash between the quarterback and his new team's owner?
