Jordan Palmer Praises Joe Burrow, Says Bengals' Star Has 'Killer Instinct'

More praise for QB1.

CINCINNATI — The Bengals won their first AFC Championship in more than 30 years last season and star quarterback Joe Burrow is a big reason for their success. 

The 25-year-old has completely changed the way people view the Bengals. 

Quarterback trainer and former NFL signal-caller Jordan Palmer worked with Burrow during the pre-draft process. He was always bullish on the Bengals' star. 

Palmer explained why he believed in Burrow during a recent appearance on The Herd with Colin Cowherd

"You're talking about a true champion in Joe Burrow," Palmer said. "When you're talking about confidence and maturity, he's up there. I don't like ranking guys that I've worked with, but in those two categories he's up there. And I just think it's the killer instinct. He's just not interested in anything other than beating the other team and killing the other team. I think if this guys in the military, he's the guy that gets to pull the trigger on the number one SEAL team at the biggest mission. That's the guy that they give that mission to. It's his personality, it's how he's always been. And also what I said about behaviors. This is a young [Tom] Brady in terms of his behaviors—his nutrition, his routine, his approach to the game."

Burrow completed 70.4 percent of his passes for 4,611 yards and 34 touchdowns last season despite playing behind a below average offensive line. He's a special talent and Palmer never doubted him during the pre-draft process.
