Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow responded to a now-viral video by Cincinnati supporter Haven Wolfe, whose mother recorded her ranting about Burrow after having her wisdom teeth removed last month, during an appearance on the “Manningcast” on ESPN.

The third-year quarterback, who is dating his longtime girlfriend Olivia Holzmacher, can be seen in the video almost crying while Wolfe appears to confess that she has a crush on him.
In the video, Wolfe can be heard saying, “I know he’s got a girlfriend and I’m happy for him but I’m not happy for me in that situation. He is talented, but let’s be honest: I prefer ambition over appearance.”
Burrow joked when asked by Eli Manning if he thought Wolfe’s remarks were flattering or insulting, “It sounds like I’m being called ugly if you ask me. I might be mistaken.”

Eli remarked, “But you’re ambitious. I believe she is praising your ambition.” To this, Burrow replied, “I guess I am ambitious.” “Nobody can ever say you’re not ambitious, Joe,” Peyton Manning added in response.
Who is Wolfie & What Is The Wisdom Tooth Saga?
The Cincinnati Reds’ in-stadium host Wolfe posted the video on Instagram with the caption, “I had my wisdom teeth removed on Tuesday. These are, ‘apparently,’ my thoughts heading into Week 11… Bengals, go! Bengals.”
Wolfe claimed during an appearance on FanDuel TV’s “Up and Adams” program that she underwent anaesthesia while wearing a Burrow jersey while having her wisdom teeth extracted.

“I have a terrible fear of needles,” Wolfe said, adding that she was already in tears when she entered the room because she knew they were going to start an IV. “I cried as I slept, and anesthesia can cause emotional reactions. It happens a lot. Naturally, I was in tears when I awoke.”
Wolfe claimed that her doctor advised her mother to discuss a topic with her that would make her happy. My mother said, “Well, let’s just talk about the Bengals,” when she saw her wearing her Joe Burrow jersey that particular day.
” I was supposed to feel better after it. It’s been really amazing because seeing myself on all these sports pages is, of course, interesting and entertaining. I appear to be a rabid 12-year-old outside.”
It was indeed incredible to see Joe’s reaction on the viral video.
