It’s safe to say Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is on his way to being one of the faces of the NFL.
According to the NFLPA, Burrow finished sixth among all NFL players in official league merchandise sold during his rookie year, counting through February 2021.
For context, here’s the top six:
- Tom Brady, QB, Tampa Bay
- Patrick Mahomes II, QB, Kansas City
- Lamar Jackson, QB, Baltimore
- Tua Tagovailoa, QB, Miami
- Aaron Rodgers, QB, Green Bay
- Joe Burrow, QB, Cincinnati
Burrow was one of two rookies to register in the top 10 and ranked second behind only Tom Brady in the “sales of Wincraft pins, koozies, posters and stickers” category.
Now on the comeback trail and about to see his roster get a major infusion of talent via the draft, Burrow has a chance to find some staying power in these sort of metrics if he can stay on the field and keep improving as a sophomore.
