Former NFL superstar Adrian Peterson has been embroiled in controversy after reports surfaced that he was selling his MVP, Rookie of the Year (ROTY), and Offensive Player of the Year (OPOTY) trophies, among nearly 1,000 other items, in an estate sale in Houston. The items reportedly up for auction included his MVP trophies, game balls, and personal items like True Religion Jeans, shirts, jerseys, baby clothes, and boxer shorts, after allegedly blowing through $100 million of his earnings. These reports came amid claims that Peterson, who made $125 million in his career from salary and endorsements, had gone broke. However, Peterson has since refuted these reports, stating that he has not authorized the sale of any of his trophies or awards. He confirmed that he is not selling any of his memorabilia and is taking legal action against the auction house involved. Peterson emphasized his financial stability and denied the need to sell his hard-earned trophies. Despite facing property seizures as shown in court records, Peterson plans legal action over the unauthorized auction of his trophies.
