The Cincinnati Bengals’ superstar quarterback, Joe Burrow, shocked many when he admitted that he was unhappy playing. This soon sparked a lot of rumors about him getting traded, though Burrows himself has reportedly not yet asked the team to trade him.
With those rumors swirling around, many are already wondering where Burrow might end up in. There are even more rumors now that some teams are already interested, given how good the Bengals QB1 has been despite the lackluster protection he has with that Bengals frontline, which is considered one of the worst in the league.
Despite this, a quarterback of Joe Burrow’s caliber would not come cheap, so any trades that would happen could cost that team a lot. Despite this, a lot of teams are seemingly willing to deal with the Bengals.
5 Potential Destinations For Joe Burrow Should Cincinnati Bengals Trade Him
Cleveland Browns
Yes, the Browns already have Shedeur Sanders, but given the organization’s penchant for trying to acquire quarterbacks, this one is a bit obvious. The team could offer up Sanders along with other players or some future picks to get Burrow to Cleveland… and then do another trade to possibly land Fernando Mendoza at No. 1, as the team is obsessed with quarterbacks at this point.
Minnesota Vikings
The team currently has up-and-coming QB JJ McCarthy, who has shown vast amounts of improvement. However, the Vikings might want to win as soon as possible and possibly trade for Burrow to get an elite QB and maybe act as a mentor to McCarthy.
New York Jets
Burrow may be a player who could turn things around for the Jets, which just saw its long playoff drought continue to get longer. The team could dangle a possible 1st round pick for next year’s draft to get the Bengals to the table. They have five potential first round picks they could offer to the Bengals to make things even more interesting.
New York Giants
Jaxson Dart has been phenomenal for the Giants, showing that promoting him to QB1 has been the right choice. But just like the Browns, they could use him as a possible trade option to get McCarthy, or they could trade some future draft picks and have Burrow be a possible mentor for Dart. There are plenty of scenarios happening here.
Pittsburgh Steelers
Aaron Rodgers is expected to retire at the end of the season, which means the Steelers would need a new QB. This is where a trade for Joe Burrow could come in, with the team needing a new franchise QB and improve upon their record, possibly even leading them to another Super Bowl.
