'Everyone has a responsibility to do good': Golf event supports Joe Burrow Foundation
Cincinnati Bengals head coach Zac Taylor, LSU Tigers head coach Brian Kelly and ESPN's Kirk Herbstreit were among a sold-out field of golfers at Coldstream Country Club on Monday raising $924,250 at the inaugural Joe Burrow Foundation Golf Invitational.
Burrow's parents, Jimmy and Robin, hosted the event. Participants also included Bengals coaches and staff members Brian Callahan, Darrin Simmons, Dan Pitcher, Brad Kragthorpe, Lou Anarumo, Doug Rosfeld and Sam Francis, as well as NFL Hall of Famer Anthony Muñoz, Bengals legends Kenny Anderson, Jim Breech and David Fulcher, broadcasters Dan Hoard and Dave Lapham and Reds legends Marty Brennaman and George Foster.
Last week, the foundation announced that a competition continuing through Tuesday and partnering with Where I'm From apparel titled, "From the Bayou to Greater Cincinnati: Let's Do Good," is donating proceeds from a Burrow-themed T-shirt to families in Ohio and Louisiana struggling with food insecurity and childhood mental health issues.

Those aren’t just words for the #Bengals QB. The @Burrowfdn raised a ton of money today at his golf tournament to provide resources and support to the underprivileged and underserved.

An incredible player but the work Joe Burrow is doing for children in Athens, Ohio and Baton Rouge is something LSU fans should be proud of.
