Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is the perfect candidate for the exploding-in-popularity Netflix documentary series “Quarterback” after their first season.
However, when he got approached about it, he turned them down.
Something changed behind the scenes, because now the Bengals superstar quarterback will be starring in Season 2 of the Netflix hit “Quarterback.”
Former Bengals quarterback Boomer Esiason said this month, “It sounds like Joe Burrow is doing the ‘Quarterback,’ by the way.”
It should be noted that Burrow previously stated he would perhaps like to do the show during a different year, but it seems he has changed his mind.
“Maybe one year, this year, I’m not,” Burrow told reporters. “I would like to do it maybe a couple of years down the road, but I don’t think now is the right time.”

“Quarterback” was a big hit for Netflix when it hit the streaming giant this summer. The first season followed three quarterbacks: Patrick Mahomes, Kirk Cousins, and Marcus Mariota.
Joe Burrow is fresh off having his Bengals in the AFC Championship for the second-straight season. The Cincinnati Bengals fell short of winning the Super Bowl for the second consecutive year, losing 23-20 to the Kansas City Chiefs in the AFC Championship Game. The season before, the team made it to the Super Bowl but lost to the Rams.
This past season, Burrow threw for 4,475 yards, 35 touchdowns, and 12 interceptions while completing 68.3 percent of his passes.
