Cincinnati Bengals star quarterback Joe Burrow has had a lot of extra time this offseason as he recovered from a wrist injury that ended his 2023 season, and it sounds like it allowed him to develop a new talent: piano.
During a recent interview with Ben Felderstein of Complex, Joe Burrow revealed that he has been learning piano this offseason, saying that it has also helped him with his rehab process.
“I’m learning the piano right now, hopefully I can get pretty good at that by next offseason. I guess it’ll be pretty tough during the season, but it’s helped my rehab too for my wrist, so that’s something I want to get good at,” Burrow told Filderstein this week.
“I’ve always wanted to learn how to play, but this was an opportune time to work on my hand and wrist dexterity while also learning that. So it was kind of the perfect storm.”
Obviously, most of Burrow’s time is typically spent on football during the season as well as the offseason, but when he was not able to throw as he rehabbed his wrist, it was obviously a really good time for him to take up a new skill like the piano.
