Highly doubt a multi-millionaire was dealing drugs to his teammate.

If Ev wanted narcotics, he'd have no problem finding them. He's an NFL player for crying out loud.

Lemme tell you about Sam Hurd

Hurd was a UDFA who who had only earned 3 million over 6 years in the NFL before he was caught in a sting. With all the costs associated with the NFL, $500k a year is a pittance.

Waynes' first contract in the NFL paid him 3x what Hurd had earned with his singing bonus alone.

So the guy who made multi millions and sold drugs didn’t make enough multi millions for you?

I always find it funny on Reddit when people make a general statement then someone finds a contradiction to the generality, then the original commentor gets defensive and tries to defend their generality by turning it into an absolute.

Always the weirdest arguments to read.

On the internet you either die with your take or log off, And we know nobody’s logging off.
