NFL Player Still Drives 26-Year Old Car Bought For $2

Dallas Cowboys running back Alfred Morris drives a $2 car from CNBC.



Despite now making millions of dollars as the Dallas Cowboys running back, Alfred Morris doesn’t live the way you would imagine. His spending habits are a bit more mellow than you might think.

Some backstory on this amazing deal and car of his. According to CNBC, Morris purchased the vehicle and, like a lot of us refers to his ride by name. He calls it “Bentley,”. He purchased the car from his pastor for the $2 price tag during his junior year of college. Despite signing a two-year contract with the Cowboys that is worth $5.5 million plus a hefty $1 million signing bonus, Morris has kept the car and instead just given it a few upgrades to make sure he can get back and forth to practice.
