Keyshawn Johnson is less than a week into his new job on ‘Undisputed’. Still, it’s hardly an excuse for what he said about Joe Burrow on Thursday’s show, and he’s been rightly roasted for it.
The former NFL star, who is now with FS1 after his release from ESPN, referred to Burrow as “overrated,” which is fine as it’s his opinion. What’s not a matter of opinion is what the quarterback has achieved since going pro – and it’s where Key went wrong.
As to why he thinks the player is overrated: “He hasn’t won his division, I don’t believe yet.”
He would have done well to do some research before saying something so absurd on live TV as Burrow has led the Bengals to consecutive AFC North titles and fired the team to a Super Bowl appearance just over a year ago.

On another note, Burrow will be ready in time for next season following a calf injury.
The QB returned to training this week and, barring further issues will suit up for the Bengals’ Week 1 showdown against the Cleveland Browns.
