Ja'Marr Chase on Joe Burrow's Health, Desire to Play for Bengals Again

Transcript

00:00I'm pretty sure Joe wants to be out there.

00:02We could look at preseason game.

00:04He was out there in preseason games.

00:06He wants to be out there.

00:07Do you think he's a little crazy in some ways?

00:11Yeah, not a little.

00:12Yeah.

00:13I mean, people see him rehab over and over again the way it's been

00:18and how aggressive he is.

00:20And then here he is, and he's almost back already.

00:23I mean, is it mind-blowing to you?

00:27Pretty much a little bit.

00:28It was pretty fast.

00:29I didn't expect it to be so fast.

00:33When I seen him getting dressed for practice, when I seen that,

00:37my first thing in my head was I just remember telling y'all, like,

00:39you need to go get ready to come back, and shit, he's already back.

00:43So it happens fast, blink of an eye, I can say that.

00:46So his competitive nature makes him crazy.

00:48Other things as well, all of it?

00:50I think his personality makes him unique.

00:53The way he approaches the game makes him crazy.

00:56How much he loves the game makes him crazy.

00:58That's how much passion he has behind it.

01:00And nothing's wrong with that.

01:01He just wants to win.

01:02And, you know, you need people around you like that.

01:04You were one of the ones that was vocal at 23 about him taking his time to come back off the calf

01:07and came back early anyways.

01:09But this time around, do you give him any extra advice about, hey, how to handle it?

01:13Or, I mean, how'd you been through it before?

01:14How do you deal with it?

01:15I ain't going to say nothing.

01:17I ain't mad about what he's doing, how he's doing it at the end of the day.

01:22At the end of the day, when stuff like that happens, I'm trying to look out for my brother.

01:25You know what I'm saying?

01:26At the end of the day, we all have a say so on how we want to go about continuing the process from an injury.

01:31So I'm just being a brother and giving on positive energy.
