Joe Burrow throws first TD pass and is praised by LeBron James

While Joe Burrow managed to reach the end zone for his first NFL score in Week 1, he didn’t throw a touchdown in the Bengals’ loss to the Chargers.

That changed Thursday against the Browns, as Burrow’s first passing score came in the second quarter on a 23-yard strike to tight end C.J. Uzomah.

The throw also caught the attention of Lakers forward and fellow Ohio native LeBron James, the world’s greatest basketball player, who knows a thing or two about having the ‘it’ factor that makes Burrow special.

The score was part of what was a solid start to his first clash with Cleveland, as he’s now 12/15 passing for 109 yards and a score with no turnovers, good for a 119.2 pass rating.

And it came not a moment too soon, as the Bengals were down 14-3 and in danger of getting blown out until the scoring strike, the first of what hopes to be very many in the coming years in the Queen City.
