Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow reveals he canceled Batmobile purchase after home burglary
Joe Burrow looked like a superhero last season while keeping the Cincinnati Bengals afloat despite the team allowing the 25th-most points per game in the NFL. The two-time Pro Bowler will no longer have the car to fit the part, though. Advertisement Burrow revealed on Netflix's latest season of "Quarterback" that he canceled his previous purchase of a real-life Batmobile, Batman's go-to ride in Gotham City. Burrow rethought the acquisition after his Cincinnati home was broken into last December. The burglary occurred while Burrow and the Bengals were on the road playing the Dallas Cowboys in Week 14. He had originally mentioned he was buying the replica vehicle, which goes for $3 million, during last year's in-season "Hard Knocks" series that featured all four AFC North teams. "I didn't end up getting the Batmobile because I just had other things I wanted to deal with at that point," Burrow said on "Quarterback," which was released Tuesday. Advertisement After a 27-20 win over the Cowboys on Dec. 9, Burrow found out his house was ransacked. Law enforcement responded to Burrow's home around 8:14 that night. While Burrow was away, a bedroom window on the back side of his house was broken and rooms were rummaged through. A federal grand jury in Cincinnati charged three men believed to be operating as part of a South American Theft Group, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Ohio. "Quarterback" shows a conversation between Burrow and then-Bengals defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo from last winter. Burrow explains the fallout of the burglary, noting stolen jewelry but also, more importantly, an invasion of privacy. As shown in "Quarterback," Burrow discusses the inconvenience of having news vans camped out by his house and even talks about the possibility of him moving houses. Advertisement "I just get very uncomfortable," Burrow told the show in another scene. "My life is very public. That comes with the job, but there's certain parts of your life that are yours. Your house is one of those."
