Cincinnati Bengals practice on Wednesday, October 21, got a surprise visitor: Vice President JD Vance. Yep, the VP of the United States swinging by the team’s digs.
The Big Visit
Vance, who’s an Ohio native and a huge Bengals fan, rolled through for an unannounced stop after hitting up some other events nearby. You know how it is when local dignitaries pop in. The word is he got the grand tour of the facility, took it all in, and then made his way around to greet the team. Sounds like a cool, albeit brief, moment for the Bengals players, right?
Burrow’s Quick Take
But here’s where it gets interesting. After practice, superstar QB Joe Burrow was asked directly if he had a chance to actually *talk* with Vance during the visit. His answer? Straight up: “We did not.” He then added, “He came with everybody and left with swiftness and efficiency before the end of practice, so I didn’t get to.” “Swiftness and efficiency,” huh? Sounds like a blink-and-you-miss-it kind of moment. When reporters pressed him for his reaction, Burrow pivoted. Instead of talking about the quick visit, he chose to speak about how his job brings people together. Talk about keeping it neutral and focused on the game!
