Winnipeg49ers Posted October 3, 2017 Share Posted October 3, 2017 Doing some research on current NFL players who like to spend a ton of money. Current players, I can think of so far are DeSean Jackson and Dez Bryant. Thanks in advance for any help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11sanchez11 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I would say take a guess and you got one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cddolphin Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Jameis Winston strikes me as a guy who would be flashy with his cash. JJ Watt probably has most of his money locked away in bonds and index funds. Antonio Brown comes off as having a gold-plated toilet. I bet Gronkowski is thrifty; hasn't he said he hasn't spent a dime of his NFL money, using only money from sponsorships? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jlash Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 James Harrison spends a ton of money, but in the smart way, keeping his body in prime condition. There are countless articles on the amount of money he spends a year his body. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVillain112 Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Gio Bernard was noted for driving a used mini-van (I think it was his GF's moms) to practice. Where he earned the nickname Gio-van. So I'm guessing he's thrifty with his money. Other guys that are noted to not spend money that I've seen are Gronk, Sam Bradford, and Marshawn Lynch. On the other side, Chad Ochocinco and T.O. liked to spend and they are hurting for cash now as a result. Cam Newton I've seen posting about him balling out. His teammates did a parody video to the one he posted where he was balling out for his birthday: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LETSGOBROWNIES Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 Cousins lives with his parents/in-laws in the offseason and drives a POS. There's being responsible with money and then there's just being cheap. Live a little Kirk, a new car and a condo should be doable on a 24 million per year salary.

JDLefebvre Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I only got a little glimpse into it but saw AB out in Phoenix with his kids and wife/gf (not sure) at a go-cart track and they bought and wasted most of 2 tables full of food. Not a big thing, but he definitely seems like the type to spend a lot of money on a lot of glamorous purchases. Have you seen the vehicle he shows up to camps in. Someone mentioned Ocho Cinco, and TO... I'd look into AB and more 'diva' WRs like OBJ and you'll probably find some stories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DontTazeMeBro Posted October 4, 2017 Share Posted October 4, 2017 I think a more interesting, and much MUCH shorter list, would be players that are actually responsible with their money. To that point I've heard somewhere that Kevin Garnett don't spend nothing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I realize some may find it irrelevant but I absolutely hate when people waste food like that. If you order it, eat it. There's some starving kid in Africa and all that....

I find it interesting when people seem to have such an extreme lack of balance or common sense with money. Save some for a rainy day, but realize you only get one crack at life and to make sure you enjoy yourself too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
