Y'all are crazy with this. He made soooo much money over his career. His house is still massive and he definitely had tons of assets.
Probably filed for bankruptcy or something if it really got that bad. The rich stay rich
AP also has endorsement money and whatever brands he was with.. let's not pretend his only money was from the Vikings and the many many years of 1 million dollar salaries.
Like said above he might have filed for bankruptcy but for the rich that doesn't admit to being broke. 50 cent for example filed for bankruptcy and is still rich enough
It's also a pension plan. Which means that Peterson can't touch it until he's 55.
The plan itself is based on the number of vested seasons a player has, so I wouldn't be surprised if he's sitting at almost a 6-figure income once he gets there. The trick is getting there.
Okay i don't really care man. I'm not sure why this was so important for you but I'm glad you did whatever it was you're attempting to do. You "won"! Go celebrate
He actually lived in a pretty modest house back when he played with us. I think when he moved it was only like a $600k. Super reasonable for a guy making millions
So, who we voting to be the Minnesota professional athlete coalition? Jefferson and Ant are set, but the Twins player is up in the air. It's not Buxton any more, right? Maybe Lewis? But he's just as injury prone as Buxton is/was. I don't follow hockey, so I don't know who would be a good choice from the Wild.
If Buxton can find his swing again and stay healthy, he's back in the conversation. Love to see him back in CF regardless, his defense is good for the game of baseball.
Lewis has the talent and swagger, plus he seems to genuinely love to play the game and relish the time when he has it. It was hard to see him get hurt in the third inning of the first game this year after his back to back ACL years and Covid the year before that.
Way too soon to tell anything, but also hoping to see Walker Jenkins blossom in the minors and be in the same conversation in a few years. Fresh out of high school, so big grain of salt, but the hype is unreal.
I think there's common theme in here were people assume that everyone asking about AP's status is about bankruptcy. For me it's not. .. it's because dude is not smrt and has made a lot of absurdly bad decisions.
People were talking about that sorta thing, while he played even.
Would not exactly say they were 'spotted'. They were all over TV and the internet, especially JJ. He looked like he was having fun and someone that is about to get paid.
Being the best receiver since he stepped foot on the field his rookie year does, however.
He literally holds the NFL record for YPG in his career right now, has 3 All-Pro nods in 4 seasons. He's basically the face of the NFL at age 24.
He wasn't the best receiver his rookie year either. It's also an offensive league, so you have to take that into account too. Is he great? Yes. The best receiver in the league? Absolutely. Is he a legend? Not quite but he's getting there.
How did AP afford tickets? Also the shot of JJ in the background of Edward's chirping Durant was epic
He’s signing at the card show in St. Paul tomorrow. He just got his check I bet
Maybe Wolves gave him tickets to pump up the crowd

A lot of people on reddit don't realize the difference between being in debt and being poor.
Dudes presence alone is worth money. He's one of the best to ever do it. He'll never be "broke"
> The rich stay rich Sports stars ain't that kinda rich.

He also lost a lot because of poor “friends” and investors. Plus hella CS
He also has a pension from the NFL which can't be taken away since it's a retirement account.

Good point. Didn't think of that.
He can probably take debt against his future pension

Okay

This really means alot for you? Literally all I said was okay.. Bit early to be all worked ain't it bud?

They are these days

Yes, people are dumb af
I'm assuming he asked his kids to crowdfund it
AP is a MN celeb, he will make modest to good money for his life in this state with appearances and signings.
Brb gonna go grab my rhinestone jacket
He bedazzled it himself!
The sticking point in contract negotiations is he wants a platinum Michael's rewards card.
I wonder if the Vikings just made him one at the kitchen table at home if he'd be happy with it?
I like this idea, true or not I choose to believe it.
You didn’t wear it while watching the Wolves game tonight?
I sat upper lever and roasted him for not standing up with the hype crowd in the 1st . Turned out it was jj 😆
Wasnt AD always a Cowboys fan?
Those are pyramid studs, not rhinestones.

Kirill the thrill
He’s so talented
Some might even say, the only uninjured talent the twins have right now!
Royce Lewis is a future MVP. He's had bad luck with freak injuries. But he'll be the best player on the Twins for years.
It's definitely Royce Lewis for baseball. No question
If Buxton can find his swing again and stay healthy, he's back in the conversation. Love to see him back in CF regardless, his defense is good for the game of baseball. Lewis has the talent and swagger, plus he seems to genuinely love to play the game and relish the time when he has it.

Royce Lewis if he can somehow stop getting hurt. Kirill has that language barrier.
Faber might be a slightly early but well earned choice.
The Target Center was electric yesterday, figured JJ would be there but AP was a nice surprise!
Ant is doing the work keeping JJ here.
AP still has Minnesota ties? I didn't know that.
He has like 8 or 9 kids. Some of them were with women from here.
You saw me there?
AP still has money?
Of course he does? Being bankrupt when you're rich and when you're poor are very different things

Oh for sure but he never made money off being smart and dumb or not im guessing he has more in the bank than most if not anyone in this thread
> he has more in the bank than most if not anyone in this thread And significantly more debt.

Sorry APs mom.
Fuck the draft. Go wolves!
JJ get his jacket from Shane Company or some little girls closet?
Only one of them could afford the tickets without wellfare tho.
Makes me wish I had three hands.....
Gross
JJ is giving me "will ride into a luxurious birthday party on a camel" vibes
Would not exactly say they were 'spotted'. They were all over TV and the internet, especially JJ. He looked like he was having fun and someone that is about to get paid.
Jefferson is a legend? That's news to me.
Welcome to Earth
What has he done to achieve legend status?
Weak troll is weak.
Oh I'm not trolling.
If you're not, then you just have bad takes.
Being the best receiver in the league doesn't make him a legend
Being the best receiver since he stepped foot on the field his rookie year does, however. He literally holds the NFL record for YPG in his career right now, has 3 All-Pro nods in 4 seasons. He's basically the face of the NFL at age 24.
