Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was a special guest for the New Heights Live show on Thursday. He described how Jason Kelce’s Super Bowl parade speech and text to recruit him to UC in 2018 meant a lot.

Burrow closed his on-stage appearance by hammering home how much the text from Kelce meant to him after “not seeing the fruits of his labor” at Ohio State.

That meant a lot to me.”
