Bengals Star Joe Burrow on Participating in Netflix Documentary Quarterback

Transcript

00:00Caught me on the right day, I guess.

00:03But, you know, I think it's going to be good entertainment.

00:08Not necessarily the season that I wanted to have in that spotlight.

00:15But, you know, I think a big part was Peyton being involved in it, too.

00:23You know, I have a lot of respect for him, obviously.

00:26And what he did, does, is as a person.

00:31So if that guy reaches out to you and asks you to do something, then, you know, most of the time I'm going to say, yeah.

00:39Have you watched a bunch?

00:40Yeah, I've watched the first several episodes to get my input.

00:45What's Peyton trying to do?

00:47He's trying to sub him on that.

00:48What's the biggest buying point?

00:49Because obviously I know that guy really well.

00:51I trust him a lot.

00:52To get involved with something like that with your name attached to it, what's been the biggest selling point to say,

00:55hey, this is a project that I think would be good for you?

00:59Just the only positive things could come out of it.

01:03You know, he's going to protect me, protect our team, protect our organization.

01:07You know, I have trust in him for saying that and trust that he's going to do that.

01:13So I probably wouldn't have done it if he wasn't involved.

01:18But I have a lot of trust and faith in him to not do anything that would hurt me or the team.

01:25What did you think of the first few episodes that you've seen?

01:29Pretty good.

01:30I guess that's for you guys to decide when it comes out.

01:33I don't know.

01:34I probably won't watch it when it comes out.

01:38But hopefully you guys like it.

01:40Is it more entertaining than a documentary on Jeff Hobson?

01:45I sure hope so.

01:48Jeff, you're a very private person.

01:52I'd like to keep that close to the vest.

01:54But doing this documentary and then the break-in last December,

02:00what was it like going through that while knowing that cameras were following you?

02:05Yeah, that was definitely a curveball that I didn't quite expect throughout the whole process.

02:11But the people involved in it, working on it on the day-to-day were great

02:18and weren't too intrusive.

02:22So, you know, I worked with some good people for that.
