What a class act.
Cincinnati quarterback Joe Burrow may be done for the season due to injury, but that doesn’t mean he’s done making an impact for his Bengals teammates.
Burrow was once again watching from the sideline as backup Jake Browning led the Cincinnati offense in Week 14 against the Colts.
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Jake Browning’s family watched Sunday’s NFL Week 14 win against the Indianapolis Colts from teammate Joe Burrow’s box at Paycor Stadium and that was made possible by Burrow himself.
Browning told reporters after the game that Burrow gave Browning’s family, and his girlfriend, Stephanie Niles, access to his club box so that they wouldn’t have to watch the game in the terrible elements.
“The Browning family, they’re using Joe Burrow’s box. And Joe’s mom and dad are there too,” CBS play-by-play announcer Tom McCarthy said during the broadcast. “But that’s pretty cool.”
“That’s really cool of Joe. When I saw his family in the box, I’m like, ‘Yeah, he didn’t pay for that box. He’s on a rookie minimum deal,'” color analyst Jay Feely joked.

After going undrafted in 2019, Browning spent two years on the Vikings practice squad before joining the Bengals in 2021.
Browning completed 18 of 24 passes for 275 yards with two touchdowns and one interception and added three rushes for seven yards and another score in the Bengals’ 34-14 win over the Colts on Sunday.
