Joe Burrow has decided to go with a familiar face as his pre-draft trainer by choosing Jordan Pamer.
Jordan, brother to former Cincinnati Bengals first overall pick Carson Palmer, has carved out a successful post-NFL career by training top prospects.
Normally this wouldn’t be major headline news — Jordan is a star in the training world. But the Palmer connection makes it more interesting than usual — and Carson just had an interview where he wasn’t too kind to the Bengals.
And after that Carson interview, Burrow went out and said he wants to play for a team committed to winning Super Bowls.
Is all of this connected? Loosely. But there are two big takeaways. One: Burrow’s in great hands thanks to Jordan. Two: It’s going to be a long, long run to draft day.
LSU QB Joe Burrow, the leader in the clubhouse to go 1st overall, has selected ex-NFL QB Jordan Palmer for his pre-draft training, I'm told. Palmer's brother Carson, of course, was drafted 1st overall by the Bengals in 2003.
