One week after disclosing he owns a $3 million Batmobile, the home of Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow was burglarized on Monday in a continuation of gameday home invasions hitting the NFL and professional sports.
A security guard and a woman known to Burrow were present at the time of a Monday night 9-1-1 call to police, who were first alerted by the woman's mother of the apparent crisis. The 22-year-old in the home told police she was an employee of Burrow's and was able to share information about missing items.
The Hamilton County (Ohio) Sheriff's Office confirmed the break-in and said an investigation was active in the matter, which took place at 9:14 p.m. ET during the Bengals' game in Arlington, Texas, against the Dallas Cowboys.
Last month, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce confirmed they had their homes invaded in October during a Monday night game against the New Orleans Saints.
In all three cases, paid security detail in the neighborhood or home were in the area. The home of Cowboys defensive tackle Linval Joseph in Minnesota was also burglarized this season, and the NFL sent a memo to all 32 teams about a "crime ring" targeting residences of pro athletes.
The initial 9-1-1 call on Monday night to police came from a woman saying her daughter was in Burrow's house and someone was trying to get inside.
"Someone is trying to break into the house right now. My daughter is there. This is Joe Burrow's house," the caller said. "She is staying there. He's at the football game. She's wondering what she should do, if she should be hiding, or if she should go outside. She said someone was in the house."
Soon after, dispatchers received a call from inside the house from the younger female.
"Someone broke into my house," she said. "It's like completely messed up."
Burrow and the victorious Bengals (5-8) returned to Cincinnati in the early morning hours Tuesday after beating the Cowboys, 27-20.
Burrow injured his knee Monday but remained in the game. The NFL leader in passing yards (3,706) and TD passes (33) said he didn't expect the injury to prevent him from playing the host Tennessee Titans this week.
"It's nothing crazy. I just landed on it a couple of times. We'll see. It'll be sore for a while but I'll be all right," Burrow said.
