Joe Burrow is one of the highest-paid quarterbacks in the NFL after receiving a then-record extension last year, and he found a pretty cool way to spend a few of those millions.
The Cincinnati Bengals signal caller revealed on HBO's "Hard Knocks" that he purchased a Batmobile — yes, Batman's signature ride.
"Have I told you I bought a Batmobile?" Burrow told receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins during practice. "I don't get it for like a year, but I bought one."

Only 10 officially licensed and fully functional Batmobiles have been made by Wayne Enterprises Experiences, per ESPN, and Burrow made the purchase worth $2.99 million.
For that price tag, the replica vehicle comes equipped with a 525-horsepower engine from General Motors, a smokescreen delivery system, imitation gun turrets and a jet engine simulation, though Burrow won't be like Bruce Wayne with the flames coming out of the exhaust.
The purchase of this extremely rare vehicle led Burrow to tell Chase and Higgins that he thinks he needs to go all in.
"I think I gotta go all in and go for like the expensive catsuit," Burrow said.
His receivers agreed, as they playfully acted like they had the Batman cap on while laughing over the thought.
