CINCINNATI — Joe Burrow was in France this month for Paris Fashion Week and dove into his aspiration to play on the U.S. Olympic Flag Football Team.

The sport debuts at the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.

"I think it's exciting," Burrow told Glenn Cole in an interview with Stagwell. "I think it's gonna be great for the game, especially with the Olympics coming up having that there. That would be exciting to play in, that'd be a lot of fun. Especially when I think the Olympics is such an international brand. But when that starts to happen, that's going to really grow the game a lot."

An Olympic medal, to go with Burrow's other accolades would be a nice addition to his career check list.
