Celebrity Jersey Cards #703 Joe Burrow & Mike Bryan

Celebrity Jersey Cards is a weekly series in which I create virtual trading cards for celebrities wearing jerseys. Today, I continue a season-long march alphabetically through all MLB teams.

Born in Athens, Ohio, Joe Burrow played college football at THE Ohio state and LSU, before being selected by the Cincinnati Bengals with the first pick in the 2020 NFL draft. In 2021, he was named Comeback Player of the Year, as he led the Bengals to Super Bowl LVI, although they lost to the Los Angeles Rams. In 2022, he again led the team to the AFC championship, but lost to the Kansas City Chiefs. Burrow stated he planned on saving all of his contract money, while living off his endorsements. Either way, I'm sure he will be fine. Burrow earned his Celebrity Jersey Card supporting his home state Reds.

California native Mike Bryan, along with twin Bob, was the world's top doubles player for more than nine years. He won a Gold and two bonze medals in the Olympics in doubles and mixed doubles tennis play. I believe he threw out a ceremonial pitch for the Reds while in town for a tournament. My only question is if his twin caught the pitch.
