The Houston Chronicle reports no specific details on Young's assets and liabilities were immediately available.The 30-year-old Young is fighting two lawsuits stemming from a $1.8 million loan obtained in his name during the 2011 NFL lockout.A court has granted a judgment against Young to Pro Player Funding, a New York company that made the loan.Pro Player Funding has made several efforts in a Harris County state district court to enforce collection of the judgment, but those efforts remain pending."
It always amazes me that these guys can't control their money. I would bet he made enough in the NFL that he would never have to work again if he used it right.

No he didn't. Who could live on a $26 million dollar signing bonus or the $32 million from his salary. I mean come on $58 million isn't enough to last a lifetime!
incredible and I don't feel sorry.
My how the "mighty" have fallen lol...
Pathetic
Didn't Young score something like a '1' on the Wunderlic Test? :-*It's a shame but not surprising.
I think it was a 6.
I'm sure he blew a lot of the money himself but he seemed to have it particularly rough with family members and illegitimate agents screwing him.
He once spent $6000 at TGI Friday's. He once bought 160 seats on a 170 passenger on a SW flight, because he didn't want to sit near anyone.
I, for one, am completely shocked.

We are talking about guys who never owned a credit card prior to receiving millions of dollars.
This ain't funny so don't ya dare laugh,just another case 'bout the wrong path,Straight 'n narrow or yo' soul gets cast.Good Night

No sympathy at all!! This kinda shlt is why he's in the situation he is now:4. On a 2007 Southwest flight from Nashville to Houston, VY bought all of the seats except for about ten passengers who'd bought tickets before he could buy the entire plane.The plane seated 130 passengers, meaning VY purchased 120 of the seats. http://outkickthecoverage.com/vince-young-spent-5k-a-week-at-the-cheesecake-factory-bought-entire-southwest-flights.php
Just helps to paint a picture of why he couldn't cut it in the NFL. He had all the physical ability in the world, but never had it between the ears.
