There may have been many celebrities on last night's 'White Dudes for Harris' call, but one white dude who definitely was not on the call is Bengals quarterback, Joe Burrow.
On Monday night, presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris held a "White Dudes for Harris" fundraising call.
In the wake of the call, several tweets went viral claiming among the celebrities that attended, Cincinnati Bengals franchise quarterback was among them.

It’s funny people are saying “Joe Burrow endorsed Harris! He joined the White Dudes for Harris zoom!”, but yet in a year where technology is so amazing, now one took a screenshot or had proof that he was “there”?
