Spencer Larsen Is No Chris Henry

Filed under: BroncosYesterday we noted that former Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Chris Henry, who made $2.5 million in three years, is now totally broke at the age of 25.So today let's talk about a player who sounds like he's got the complete opposite approach to money: Broncos rookie linebacker Spencer Larsen, a sixth-round draft pick who got a $97,500 signing bonus. Larsen was asked how he planned to spend that money: A car? Jewelry? A party in Vegas? Nope:"We don't have any big needs, so we'll just save it," Larsen said. "It's more money than we've ever been around."Larsen, who is married and has a kid and sounds like he's got a level head, would make a good speaker at next year's Rookie Symposium. Permalink | Email this | Linking Blogs | Comments more...
