NFL star Joe Burrow has revealed the one reason why he did not go through with a stunning $3million purchase of a Batmobile replica.

In the previous season, Cincinnati Bengals star shared during an episode of the ‘Hard Knocks’ documentary that he initially intended to buy a car.

However, Burrow never received the Batmobile replica – of which there are just 10 in the world – and has now shed light on the reason why. 

In an episode of Netflix’s ‘Quarterback’ documentary, Burrow revealed that he cancelled the purchase after his home had been burgled. 

The producers of the show then asked Burrow as to whether the burglary was the main reason why he opted out of buying the vehicle.

Burrow mentioned to the producers, ‘Yeah, I considered it at first, but I chose not to purchase the Batmobile because I had other priorities at the time.’

The Batmobile replica, also known as ‘Tumbler,’ wasn’t legal for street use but did feature custom seating, one-way mirrored glass screens, and a dashboard designed in the original style.

The burglary of the quarterback’s $7.5million mansion is covered in the new season of the NFL docu-series, which also features Jared Goff of the Detroit Lions and the Atlanta Falcons’ Kirk Cousins.

He later said: ‘Of f***ing course this happened to me right now. When you’re on cloud nine, something’s gonna bring you right back down. It just felt like the kind of year that it was’.

Footage captured by Netflix’s cameras showed the moment Burrow found out about the incident, moments after he led the Bengals to a win on the road against the Dallas Cowboys.

The locker room footage from Episode 6 of the season showed Burrow, 28, scrolling through his cell phone with his head in his hands.

He was still wearing some items of his Bengals uniform, showing just how soon after he left the field it is.

The incident was initially shrouded in mystery after it emerged that the 911 call was made by Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model Olivia Ponton rather than the quarterback’s longtime partner Olivia Holzmacher.

Although Holzmacher is no longer believed to be involved with Burrow, Ponton has stayed silent on her relationship with the quarterback, refusing to address the topic when asked by paparazzo at last month’s Met Gala. However, the two were recently spotted out late in New York.

Ponton – who boasts eight million followers on TikTok – is said to have told officers that she noticed ‘a shattered bedroom window and the room ransacked’ when she arrived at Burrow’s property on December 9. Burrow was out of town at the time.

Chilean nationals Bastian Morales, 23, Jordan Sanchez, 22, and Sergio Cabello, 38, and Alexander Chavez, 24, were later stopped and arrested by police on suspicion of robbery.

Police found the group in possession of LSU and Bengals gear, which is believed to have been taken from Burrow’s home. Officers said the men were in the country illegally after overstaying their permission.

Three of the men – Morales, Sanchez and Cabello – are facing federal charges for allegedly transporting stolen goods and falsifying record in a federal investigation. 

Those three are suspected by investigators of orchestrating similar robberies at the homes of Kansas City Chiefs stars Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes.
