Joe Burrow got a little off-the-field protection from a Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model.
According to multiple reports on Tuesday, Olivia Ponton is the person who called 911 when Burrow’s Ohio home was being broken into Monday — when the Bengals QB was busy beating the Cowboys on “Monday Night Football” in Dallas.
Ponton, 22, called in the burglary at 8:14 p.m. after she pulled up to Burrow’s $7.5 million Cincinnati home and saw a “shattered bedroom window and the room ransacked.”
“Someone broke into my house,” The model, who has 8 million TikTok followers, told authorities over the phone. “It’s like completely messed up. … Can we please send more people?”
An investigation into the incident remains ongoing, though it marks at least the third star NFLer to have their house broken into during a game.
It comes on the heels of break-ins at Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes’ homes that led the NFL to send a memo to players and teams that they may be targets.
A South American crime ring is reportedly believed to be at the center of the Chiefs stars’ incidents.
Ponton called her mother, Diane, who called 911, as well.
“My daughter is there, this is Joe Burrow’s house. 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 be going outside,” she said.
It is unknown if anything was taken from Burrow’s house.
The relationship between Ponton and Burrow, 28, is not known, though Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office documents state the influencer is “employed” by the QB.
Neither has commented publicly, though it would be an awkward way to announce a romantic entanglement.
Burrow was believed to be engaged to longtime girlfriend Olivia Holzmacher, though the college sweethearts never confirmed the news and have not been featured on one another social media since a Jan. 31 Instagram post by Holzmacher.
