    This is a non story for literally anyone else. Does anyone really believe it was intentional and that a young millionaire feels the need to steal some trivial items at Target? It’s a shame that the media will do whatever they can to try and push their bad guy narrative with him.

    You’re an NFL player and you’re ghost swiping items at target.

    He needs to check himself, because the behaviors he’s exhibiting are trending in the wrong direction. Dude has money to pay for whatever he’s buying. If it’s his girl, then he needs to address that with her immediately. Unfortunately athletes have a higher image and standard around them and you are who you put yourself around.

      He has several million dollars in actual cash in his bank accounts. I’d wager a lot of money on it being an actual misunderstanding for the simple reason there is no item in target he’d find worth stealing or helping someone else steal rather than swiping a card. The most expensive item target carries is a 20 ft artifical tree which costs 20k and I don’t think fit in a bag at self checkout. The whole thing stems from “rumors” precisely because nothing was reported or written down yet everyone’s immediately citing theft.

        Bro rich people steal small shit the most. It’s not about the value of the items.

        90% of people that had rich friends in high school have stories about those rich friends stealing all the time.

          Those aren’t rich friends. Those are “well off” kids. This dude has more liquid cash than all but a maybe a million Americans. Peopel view their friends families with million dollar houses as rich. Thats not rich.

        You over estimate people’s values and ethics. Celebrities and millionaires try to steal and rip people off all the time.

          No, no, no; it’s only capitalist pigs who steal from the people, not the down-to-earth multi-millionaire sports, music, and media stars we idolize and pedestalize.

        That’s because that is your mindset. Some people grew up with nothing and know to steal. Some people are just cleptos. You can have all the money in the world and still get a thrill from stealing some tic tacs from target.

    I know he makes millions of dollars but he’s a big ass dude, surely he can’t afford to maintain his weight on a measly rookie salary

    So… they got called out for stealing, and then they acted like children getting caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

    Got it

    An alarmingly high amount of people here think a millionaire was purposefully trying to steal some stuff from target lol.

    I recently got stuff on self checkout and just at home realized some itens were not scanned. Went back to the supermarket and they said it was ok and that I should pay more attention next time

    Based on how often I hear/see people brag about not swiping everything I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a habit that just never was broken after getting the NFL money.

    Why would he have his girlfriend steal? He has hundreds of millions of dollars. Why would she purposefully steal? He has hundreds of millions of dollars. I believe the man. Misunderstanding
