Rapper Kid Cudi tweeted that Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow sent him his game-used jersey from Sunday's AFC Championship win against the Chiefs in Kansas City.
Burrow has said he listens to Kid Cudi's "New York City Rage Fest" before every game.
From the Bengals via Twitter on Friday:
After Sunday's AFC Championship win in Kansas City to advance to Super Bowl LVI against the Los Angeles Rams, Burrow acknowledged that hearing from Cudi as he did earlier in the weekend - and being congratulated via Twitter by NBA star LeBron James and others - is surreal.
"I wouldn't call (reaching the Super Bowl) surreal. I would say it's exciting," Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow said of the win against the Chiefs. "The situation that I'm in socially doesn't really feel real to me. Because, you know, in my head I'm just the same ol' guy. One of my idols growing up, Kid Cudi, reached out to me yesterday. You have LeBron tweeting at me or whatever ... that part is surreal. The football part - not so much. That (other) stuff is crazy."
Burrow added that "Man on the Moon" is another of his favorite Kid Cudi tracks.
"I like all of his stuff. I like all of his stuff," Burrow added.
