    Travis Henry? How much could that guy have really made anyway. He was relevant for like two seasons. And Mark Brunell lol

    Oh: This explains things:
    On July 15, 2009, Henry was sentenced to three years in federal prison for financing a cocaine trafficking operation

    Most of these guys are just retards with their money. Every single half-way decent college player should have to take a personal finance class as a freshman during the off season.

    Many more than this

    NFL is REALLY bad for the players, up to 80% end up divorced, broke and physically broken within a couple of years of retiring

    The list of NBA stars who have gone broke is alot more impressive in my opinion since the average career of any nfl player can easily be twice as short as that of even a subpar nba guy.. But still, i thought Deuce had gotten some good change before he left, and seemed like he had a decent head on his shoulders

    "Hollywood" Henderson went bankrupt and hit the lottery. He was a regular at a place I worked at. He came in about a month after winning the lottery and I walked up to him and shook his hand to congratulate him. I said "Congrats Hollywood...are you gonna keep doing your speaking engagements?" With a big smile he said "You kiddin' I'm gonna double my fee. I went from rags to riches to rags and back to riches. That makes a hell of a story." I think he won 18-20 million from the lottery.

    Didn't Derrick Coleman also lost all his money? That basketball list must be even bigger. Antoine Walker?

    brunell is the funniest on list. straightlaced white guy making qb money for over a decade.

    they all need to fade some rubberbands to get back those millions.
