Since the season seemed like a total loss, Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow made a point to very publicly apply pressure to the team's front office about contracts for teammates like Ja'Marr Chase,

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, making his first Pro Bowl appearance after his second career selection, took part in the "passing the test" competition, posting 27 points. The 2025 Pro Bowl Games event featured quarterbacks trying to hit targets at various distances around the field worth different point values in 40 seconds.

There was some question as to whether Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow would attend and participate in the Pro Bowl this weekend. After all, Burrow was last seen overseas, and major names opt out of the Pro Bowl often, hence Patriots rookie Drake Maye suddenly being one of the players set to attend.

Cincinnati Bengals Pro Bowlers Joe Burrow, Ja'Marr Chase and Trey Hendrickson are set to compete in three of the five events in Thursday's Pro Bowl Skills Show, the NFL announced Wednesday.

As most fans could reasonably guess, the Cincinnati Bengals have again firmly involved Joe Burrow in the offseason process. That includes looping in Burrow on major offseason items on the to-do list such as possible extensions for Ja’Marr Chase, Tee Higgins and even Trey Hendrickson.

Joe Burrow on Ja'Marr Chase during an ESPN Pro Bowl Games interview Thursday: "I don't know what more he could do to show and prove himself."

The Cincinnati Bengals have several high profile players who could shortly be on their way out due to looming contract disputes. That is if Joe Burrow can’t convince the organization to spend all the money necessary to keep them around.

Although it is officially the offseason for the Cincinnati Bengals, Joe Burrow continues to make it clear that he expects the front office to pay his teammates. Burrow has publicly put pressure on the front office since the Bengals win over the Dallas Cowboys during the season to extend both Tee Higgins and Ja’Marr Chase.
