Nabbs4u Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 If you're going Strictly off the Total amount Possibly lost, the Answer Starts and Ends with Vick! From the $100M contract that was null in void, to the Millions in Endorsements also lost! Now while the Money back in the day pails in comparison to Todays Athlete, I'd go Dexter Manely before Josh Gordan as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t Aaron Hernandez’s fault he had antisocial personality disorder and was raised in an environment of crime. He had mental illness...so it’s not his fault Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeotheLion Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 Blackmon would be my non QB choice. Never got a 2nd contract and I thought he had top 5 WR potential. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The title of the thread is ‘Guys who lost money for reasons they can control’, the point is Josh Gordon has not been able control his drug addiction (for whatever reason) – I’m not defending his reasons for doing so. It’s not that hard. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

m haynes Posted January 6, 2020 Share Posted January 6, 2020 (edited) IMO Tom Brady. Contracts and outside money. He never exploited his Name. He should of went the Manning route put his name on everything. Gronk is doing it however the people guiding him are idiots. He's a clown and they should keep him off of live TV. Gronks act will grow old quick if it hasn't all ready. Who idea was to expose him on new years eve!!! PS This is not a knock on Manning. Max your dollars until you can't. MJ did it right.
