Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow, Celtics power forward Blake Griffin, Blue Jays pitcher Kevin Gausman, Islanders winger Anders Lee, and several other professional athletes have teamed up to purchase a farm in Iowa. The farm in question is 104 acres and produces corn and soy. According to Front Office Sports, the purchase was made through a $5 million fund they all contributed to and was set up by Patricof Co., which sources investment opportunities for athletes.
