Bengals free agent signing impressed, gives Joe Burrow big comparison

   

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow has a way of impressing.

Beyond the many obvious examples, one can just look at how his new teammates react upon arrival at Payucor Stadium annually.

The latest example is guard Lucas Patrick, who signed with the team this offseason as a possible starter and has already told Geoff Hobson of Bengals.com the following: "I was there when Aaron Rodgers won back-to-back MVPs. It would be cool to watch another MVP again."

 

Patrick didn't stop there, either, even explaining some of what he means:

 

"Little nuances where he gives guys adjustments. We were installing something one day. And he went into detail exactly what he wanted and what he's seeing and how that affects the front. It's pretty impressive."

Burrow felt like an MVP contender last year despite some of the obvious struggles around him, so provided the offseason really upgraded things, he could be in the running again.

Should Lucas win one of the starting guard jobs over the likes of Cordell Volson, he could be out there on the field when Burrow gets to chasing awards, too.
