Many football fans are starved for more action on the gridiron, especially now that the offseason is underway.
The Fanatics Flag Football Classic on Saturday gave people a sampling of NFL players participating in flag football in anticipation of the sport being added to the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles.
Tom Brady threw dimes down the field, looking like prime-Patriots Tom at some points.
And… Joe Burrow bared his rear end for thirsty fans to obsess.
What? Joe Burrow’s rear end is all over the internet?
The Bengals quarterback didn’t intentionally pull his pants down, rather one of his opponents accidentally grabbed his shorts trying to remove his flag on the way to the — ahem — endzone.
The result was a view of the superstar’s rear covered only by his compression garments.
As expected, gay men and straight women weren’t calm about this. Social media posters had a ton of fun seeing one of the NFL’s hottest players revealing a little more than we’re accustomed to.
People were so down for Burrow that they were adjusting the lighting in the photo to try to see even more than was given to us.
Another fan even reminded us of a time when a player almost pulled Burrow’s pants down during a college football game during his time with the LSU Tigers.
The reveal served as a grand finale for a weekend in which Burrow had another shirtless photo go viral, much to the satisfaction of the same thirsty folks mentioned before.
Burow is one of the best players in the world, but it’s his off-field persona that fans have come to love even more than his skills on the turf.
The LSU alum is a pretty private person, but he maintains an aura and a mystique that make him a sensation. From buying a Batmobile to attending the Academy Awards afterparties earlier this month, Burrow doesn’t shy away from having fun when he’s off the clock.
