James Harrison makes pitch for Joe Burrow to join Steelers

James Harrison, a two-time Super Bowl champion with the Pittsburgh Steelers, proposed a hypothetical recruitment of Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow during a podcast. Harrison referenced Burrow's recent comments expressing impatience with Cincinnati’s struggles, where the Bengals have missed the playoffs for three consecutive seasons. He highlighted Pittsburgh's potential quarterback vacancy, as Aaron Rodgers is set to retire after the 2026 season. While Harrison playfully urged Burrow to consider a switch to the Steelers, Cincinnati has no plans to move their franchise quarterback, who signed a $275 million extension in 2023.
