2,352Former NFL player and ESPN host Marcellus Wiley spoke to VladTV about his thoughts on NFL salaries and how players spend their money. He explained that he rarely heard people talk about how they were investing their money, and Marcellus added that a lot of players struggle after retiring. However, Wiley told DJ Vlad that some athletes have thought ahead to the future and have invested their money in a way that allows them to happily retire without having to think of what they're going to do after the NFL.
During the conversation, Marcellus also shared his thoughts on Skip Bayless, whom Wiley said he had a lot of respect for. He added that a lot of people were drawn to Skip's points of view because of his conviction and confidence that came across when he was speaking on ESPN. And while Marcellus admits that he highly respects Skip, he added that he doesn't agree with the way Bayless ragged on LeBron throughout the years.
