Bengals Seeking To Keep Joe Burrow and Paycor Stadium In Cincy For Long-Term
“We’re actually going in and doing some improvements a little bit this year ourselves, and hopefully that sends a message that we’re willing to invest,” Blackburn said. “We hope we can take a look at the whole lease situation with the county and get something that would make the lease situation settled for a while and work well for the county and us.
Bengals EVP Katie Blackburn on Joe Burrow extension: ‘We won’t talk about it much until there’s something to talk about’
But based on comments from Bengals executive vice president Katie Blackburn on Wednesday from the Annual League Meeting, we shouldn’t expect news on the Burrow front right away, describing the early negotiations between the club and Burrow’s representatives to this point as “preliminary discussions.” Blackburn understands the anxiety over getting a deal done. But there’s also an order of business in place — and the Bengals just aren’t there yet.

Derek Carr will push New Orleans Saints far as Cinderella team of 2023 NFL season
This isn’t actually meant to be a playoff prediction — I’m thinking more about teams that can put together a Horatio Alger-like rags-to-riches story and less about whether they can extend their season past Week 18.
