Netflix unveils trailer and release date for show starring Joe Burrow

Netflix Drops New Trailer and Release Date for “Quarterback” Featuring Joe Burrow

A highly anticipated behind-the-scenes look at the Cincinnati Bengals and star quarterback Joe Burrow is coming to Netflix this summer. The streaming giant has officially released a new trailer and announced that the second season of the docuseries “Quarterback” will debut on July 8, 2025, providing fans with an unprecedented view into the drama, challenges, and triumphs of Burrow’s 2024 season.

Inside Access Like Never Before

“Quarterback” season two follows not just Burrow, but also NFL stars Jared Goff and Kirk Cousins, spanning the highs, lows, and pivotal moments of the 2024 NFL campaign. This season promises a deep dive into Burrow’s journey, showcasing how he orchestrated one of the league’s most potent passing offenses. Bengals fans and football lovers alike can expect comprehensive coverage of iconic plays, personal victories, and vulnerable off-field moments, all captured through Netflix’s signature storytelling style. The Bengals themselves have highlighted that this new season will deliver exclusive, behind-the-scenes footage, including Burrow’s widely celebrated “Superman” touchdown pass against the Cleveland Browns and candid locker room moments.

Trailer Highlights and First Impressions

The newly released trailer teases several standout moments. Beyond on-field drama, viewers will see Burrow joking with Chargers defensive tackle Teair Tart, discussing his purchase of a replica Batmobile, and addressing the fallout from his home being burglarized while the team was on the road in Dallas—a story that brought national attention last December. The show also touches on Burrow’s reflections on his career, with the quarterback sharing insights about his rapid rise and the fleeting nature of an NFL career, providing rare perspective from an athlete still in his prime.

For those curious to see the teaser and catch a glimpse of what’s in store, the Cincinnati Bengals have shared the official teaser trailer on their website, offering an early look at this in-depth docuseries experience.

Building on a Year of Exclusive Coverage

This Netflix series comes on the heels of another 2024 documentary spotlight for Joe Burrow and the Bengals, who were featured on HBO’s “Hard Knocks.” Unlike “Hard Knocks,” which covered just the last month of the season and, for the first time, followed an entire division rather than one team, “Quarterback” offers full-season access, capturing every key moment of Burrow’s year both on and off the field.

Career Highs Amid Team Uncertainties

While Burrow and the Bengals started the year slow, his performance was nothing short of remarkable. In the 2024 season, Burrow set personal bests in key categories, including completions (460), completion percentage (70.6%), passing yards (4,918), and touchdowns (43), while keeping interceptions to a career low for years with significant playing time. These achievements come even as the team missed the playoffs for a second consecutive year after Week 18 results didn’t go their way.

Off the field, much of the season’s narrative centered on the uncertain futures of star wide receivers Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. That uncertainty was resolved in March, when both signed record extensions with the team, securing one of the league’s most dynamic offensive tandems for years to come.

Eight Episodes of Exclusive NFL Drama

The second season of “Quarterback” will feature eight episodes, promising fans a comprehensive, unfiltered look into the lives and careers of Burrow, Goff, and Cousins. This installment builds on the show’s debut season, which was praised for its honest portrayal of NFL life and its ability to capture the human side of football. As noted by media outlets such as Men’s Journal and Bleacher Report, fans are eager to see Burrow’s unique perspective and the exclusive access provided by the series make this a must-watch for sports fans this summer.
