CINCINNATI — Peyton Manning and Tom Brady are big fans of Joe Burrow.

The Pro Football Hall of Famers dropped their top NFL quarterbacks on The Stephen A. Smith Show at a Fanatics event this past weekend and Joe Burrow was on Manning's list with a few others:

• Patrick Mahomes 

• Joe Burrow 

• Justin Herbert 

• Lamar Jackson 

• Josh Allen

"I'm a big fan of Joe Burrow," Manning said to Smith. "I'm glad to see him back and healthy. I like the way he carries himself. I like his demeanor out there. He doesn't sweat, he doesn't flinch. He's just kind of calm and cool the whole time."

Burrow's been working hard in training camp as he appears fully healthy and eager to cement his status as a top quarterback next month. Brady also had Burrow in his undefined top group.

"Joe Burrow is really impressive the way he throws the ball... Another guy who's got a great connection with his teammates," Brady told Smith. Mahomes, Allen, Jackson, Burrow and Rodgers made up Brady's group.
