Joe Burrow's father shared this photo of young Joe Burrow with everyone, cute kid, what's that he's wearing on his head?

Personally, this is my favorite photo, it's Aaron Rodgers as a baby.
That's crazy, is that a legit photo?
Weird that he would have a KC helmet as a kid, he was from Louisiana I thought
Yes, it is a legit photo, young Burrow was at an Iowa Barnstormer game with his mom in the photo. Perhaps he dreamed of playing for the Chiefs one day, very ironic!

He was born in Iowa and moved around as his father changed college coaching jobs, finally ending up near Ohio University which is in Athens, Ohio in the extreme southeastern part of the state not far from the Ohio River. From there it was on to Ohio State and a transfer to LSU. So no, not born in Louisiana, he just ended up there for a few years and the rest is history.
Hmm, Tom Brady as a child.
I really want to comment and type in my $15.15 worth {get it 15} on this one-- so I'll be nice...
