The Joe Burrow-Ja’Marr Chase Alchemy

In the past season, the duo of Chase & Burrow has sealed dominance in the NFL. Given that both are LSU standouts, they have had a good connection in the past, which has proven beneficial. Both athletes helped secure a national title in their college run.

The quarterback suffered a torn ACL in his rookie season, which made him out until the end. Although Burrow made an insane comeback in 2021, the Bengals signed Ja’Marr Chase, which immensely benefitted the team. The alliance helped the Bengals in winning their first AFC playoff game in 30+ years as they rallied towards the Super Bowl LVI.

Wideout Chase had 81 receptions for 1455 yards and 13 touchdowns in his rookie season. He made the Pro Bowl and was named the Associated Press Offensive Rookie of the Year for 2021. On the other hand, quarterback Burrow has an incredible statistical record as well. The athlete completed 366 throws for a 70.4 percent completion rate, 19 interceptions, and 47 touchdowns. Chase was Burrow’s preferred target during their 2021 run.

Chase has no equal when it comes to enormous success and accomplishments, and aligning with his long-time friend Joe Burrow helps him perform better as an athlete. According to their contract agreements, both athletes will be with the Bengals for a long time, and fans are eager to see this heavenly duo back in action.
