Judge rules Charles Rogers must repay Detroit Lions $6.1 million

Michigan

One of the all time NFL busts Charles Rogers must repay the Lions $6.1 million of a $9.1 million signing bonus because of his 2005 suspension for substance abuse.

U.S. District Judge Julian Cook ruled in the Lions’ favor on Monday after a 45-minute court hearing in Detroit.

The Lions sued Rogers last September for failing to comply with a 2008 arbitrator’s ruling that he repay the money.

My guess is the the money is long gone by now.

For what it's worth, some waitresses somewhere were getting some healthy tips~
