The walls of his financial house might be crumbling around him, but Vince Young wants you to know he's doing OK.
The free-agent quarterback found himself in the news Tuesday, after a report by The Associated Press painted his life as a tangle of bickering laywers and big-time debt.
On Wednesday, Young took to Twitter to address his situation.
Itâs a shame to see people revel in and rally around negativity in the media but I guess itâs to be expected. Yes, I need a job, who doesnât

Yes, I want to be out there playing the game I love and earning a paycheck, who wouldn't?

We are working to rectify some unfortunate finical losses, which stemmed from betrayal by those I trusted most.

But these rumors are disheartening & just untrue . Iâll keep pushing through regardless. God Bless. Trill

Young bemoans the negativity, but his story really is one of fascination for the general public. Young is just 29, and he earned $26 million in guaranteed money from his rookie contract alone. Where did it all go?
Perhaps it's none of our business, but the curiousity level is there.
