Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow didn’t have a great performance on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns, and it sparked some immediate action.
Talking with reporters on Sunday, Burrow noted that he had gotten a haircut since gameday and gave a pretty amusing reasoning for the new look.
Apparently, Burrow’s poor game against Cleveland inspired him to get the trim.
“When you have a game like that on Sunday,” Burrow joked when asked how he knew it was time to get a haircut.
Well, dang, that’s pretty honest from Burrow, who felt one of his first orders of business after losing to the Browns was to shape up his appearance.
Here’s the full interaction with Joe Burrow about his haircut.

Hey, whatever works! If getting a new ‘doo will help Burrow shake off his Week 1 struggles, than more power to him. Even if he’s partly kidding, it does seem like he’s trying to get a fresh start to 2023 in more ways than one.
Nobody thinks that Burrow will keep playing like this for the rest of the season barring a true disaster, so maybe this new haircut will help get him back on track.
