Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is enjoying his first trip to Madrid, but he apparently needed some assistance preparing for the international adventure.
And the superstar quarterback wasn't shy about admitting it.
Speaking to reporters Friday, Nov. 6, Burrow revealed that his personal stylist and his mother packed his suitcase for the team's trip to Spain.
According to NBC 5 Cincinnati's Charlie Clifford, Burrow explained that packing is his least favorite thing in the world.
Fortunately, the 29-year-old quarterback has found a way around that particular responsibility.
Burrow also was pumped up about visiting Madrid for the first time, disclosing that he's enjoyed exploring the city's museums.
"This is somewhere that I've always wanted to go... It really is a dream come true," Burrow said.
Cincinnati's Week 9 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons at Santiago Bernabéu Stadium on Sunday, Nov. 8 will mark Burrow's first NFL international game, giving the Bengals quarterback another milestone in his professional career.
Burrow was looking forward to this journey back in May.
"I hope we go out early in the week so we can experience it a little bit," Burrow told Bengals.com.
The trip also follows one of Burrow's strongest performances of the season. He threw for 462 yards and five touchdowns against Tennessee last Sunday while adding the game-winning rushing touchdown in overtime.
Now, Burrow will look to keep that momentum flowing when Cincinnati faces Atlanta at 9:30 a.m. ET on NFL Network.
