Chiefs fan pages have started campaigns to donate to Joe Burrow’s foundation, encouraging $9 donations. One page even wrote this: “My donation. I donated $9 x 3 my to honor Joe Burrow’s 3 wins against us.”

Over on the Facebook page, one commenter wrote the following: “Excellent idea. I did it…I hope we flood them with donations to show we appreciate what he’s done and what he’s doing and wishing Burrow a speedy recovery.”

The majority of the new donations on the foundation’s page are now well-wishers from Chiefs fans with comments like this: “I’m a fan of the cause and a fan of great quarterbacks. I am a diehard Chiefs fan but love the budding rivalry between our two teams. Much love, Joe!”
