Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 22 Oct, 16:33 · Archive

Vice President JD Vance toured the Cincinnati Bengals' facility and watched practice on Wednesday but did not speak to quarterback Joe Burrow.

Vice President JD Vance visited the Cincinnati Bengals' training facility on Wednesday as a longtime fan of the team. He toured the locker room, watched parts of practice, and shook hands with several players, coach Zac Taylor and others. He left the facility with a football, though it is unclear whether he brought it to be autographed or received it as a memento.

Despite his visit, Vance did not speak to the team's star quarterback Joe Burrow. When asked by reporters about an interaction with Burrow, the quarterback said simply: 'We did not. He came with everybody and left with swiftness and efficiency before the end of practice, so I didn't get to.' Burrow is the most prominent player on the roster.

Vance was in Cincinnati to give a speech at the FBI's Field Office and attend a campaign rally in nearby Sharonville.
