A photo of Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow that has been trending on social media has made him a trending topic.

The picture quickly went viral on X, the website that was once known as Twitter, and people on social media started comparing it to Hayden Christensen’s Anakin Skywalker from the early 2000s Star Wars movies.

Burrow may look different, but he is more focused on returning back to form in 2024 after his 2023 season was cut short due to injuries.
After suffering a wrist injury that ended his season in Week 11, Burrow is one of the best quarterbacks in the game when healthy. Even though he isn’t quite back to full strength yet, Burrow thinks he will have enough time to get ready for the 2024 campaign.
“It’s been a tough several months, but physically, it’s not the worst injury that I’ve had,” Burrow said, per ESPN‘s Ben Baby. “…I’ve been able to really lift and continue my offseason program kind of the way that it always has been.”
Burrow has played in one Pro Bowl, two AFC title games, and one Super Bowl despite missing two of his four NFL seasons due to injury.
