Arguably one of the best receivers of his generation, Andre Rison has had a tumultuous post-retirement life, The U.S. Sun reported. Rison enjoyed a remarkable 12-year NFL career in which he won a Super Bowl, made five Pro Bowls, and earned around $20 million. However, an expensive lifestyle led to him being declared bankrupt years later, forced to rebuild his life. Drafted in the first round by the Indianapolis Colts in 1989, Rison's career took off after being traded to the Atlanta Falcons the following year. Rison blossomed in Georgia, then after five seasons with the Falcons, reaching four Pro Bowls and being named a First-Team All-Pro in 1990, Rison was off to the Cleveland Browns where he signed a five-year deal worth up to just over $17 million. However, his time with the Browns was short, and he was cut after just one year. This was followed by a brief stint with both the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Green Bay Packers, which included a Super Bowl win with the Packers. Rison enjoyed a return to form in 1997 as he reached his first Pro Bowl since 1993 with the Kansas City Chiefs, where he remained for three seasons. Then after a single year with the Oakland Raiders, Rison's time in the NFL was over, and 2004 marked his sole season in the Canadian Football League, after signing for the Toronto Argonauts. One season and a Grey Cup win later and his time playing was finally done for good. Then three years on from the end of his playing days, Rison filed for bankruptcy. He estimated that he'd spent more than $1 million on jewelry. Another avenue down which he's spent a fortune was clubbing. "We were making it snow,” Rison said. “You start throwing $100 bills instead of fives. So you’ve got a competition going on now. I’d be lying on the bed knocked out (after getting back from the club) with $10,000 lying on the floor. I’ve got another $5,000 in my pocket. You might find another $7,500 in the pocket in my coat.” Fast forward to 2022, and according to Celebrity Net Worth, Rison has a net worth of around $250,000.
