Joe Burrow appears to be enjoying his offseason to the fullest.
The 29-year-old endured another injury-plagued season with the Cincinnati Bengals, suiting up for only eight games in the 2025 NFL season. Burrow underwent surgery for turf toe after being sacked in Week 2 by the Jacksonville Jaguars, though when he returned, he still posted 1,809 passing yards, 17 touchdowns, and 5 interceptions.

As he looks to have a healthier season in 2026, Burrow seemingly is enjoying his time away from the field as well, as evidenced by his Oscar expeditions. This comes after host Conan O'Brien made a dangerous promise to Jason and Travis Kelce.

As Burrow was leaving the Vanity Fair Oscar Party at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art following the Oscars, he was spotted getting into a vehicle with social media influencers Alix Earle and Stassie Karanikolaou and Canadian singer and songwriter Tate McRae.
TMZ reports the foursome left the scene, with Burrow covering his face as cameras snapped the scene. Meanwhile, Earle, Karanikolaou, and McRae reportedly were grinning as the vehicle drove away.
McRae is currently believed to be dating Team USA hockey star, Jack Hughes. A source spoke with US Weekly to explain where the singer and hockey star's relationship stands after the former was spotted "liking" the latter's Instagram posts.

"Tate and Jack are dating. They started casually seeing each other late last year, so it’s still new, but they are exclusively seeing each other," the source told the outlet about the relationship. They added that Hughes reached out to the star on social media and the relationship gradually grew from there.
"She thinks he is a really cool guy and they have been having a lot of fun together," the source added. "She has been so supportive of his career and has been loving going to the games and cheering him on.
“They are making it work during this busy season, but hope to have more time together next month when his season ends. Tate thinks he’s really sweet and it’s going well so far.”

Meanwhile, both Earle and Karanikolaou are single, though the former had been linked to NFL legend Tom Brady in recent months.
After another injury-shortened season, Burrow is now focused on making it back to the Super Bowl, and in order to do so, the Bengals have to get the proper team around him. Speaking after the season, the star quarterback seemingly put the onus on the front office to get him help.

"We want to be competing for championships every year," Burrow said on Dec. 31, per ESPN. "We don't want to be in the spot that we're in now.
"So something's got to change, whether it's players that we have continuing to improve and get better in playing championship-caliber football or bringing guys in that will or whatever it may be."
