4 NFL players who had an affair with a teammate's wife or girlfriend ft. Marcus Allen
The life of an NFL player has plenty of perks. Players get an absurd amount of attention from fans, they get paid an astronomical amount and women sometimes throw themselves at these popular athletes.
For most, the act of being unfaithful never even crosses their mind. Some, however, do not share the same thought process.
Here are four NFL players who had an affair with their teammate's wife or girlfriend.
#1 Golden Tate
Tate was a valuable member of the Seattle Seahawks team that made it to back-to-back Super Bowls.
Tate was a good receiver, but not a good teammate according to reports. By the end of 2013, his contract was up and Russell Wilson did not want him on the team anymore. Why you ask?
@destin_adams14 Ironically her last name is pronounced the same as Meme. She married Russel, but then they divorced after she allegedly had an affair w/ Golden Tate. https://t.co/rQuM5bH0ry
The season in which Tate left the Seahawks was the same year that Wilson divorced his first wife. It was alleged that the Seahawks quarterback found out about Tate and his wife getting together.
It is pertinent to note that Tate has strongly denied having an affair with Meem.
#2 DeMarco Murray
The former Cowboys, Eagles and Titans running back apparently had an affair with his teammate Brennan Clay's wife while in college at Oklahoma.
Brennan Clay is REALLY sticking it to his wife & DeMarco Murray for alleged affair: lostlettermen.com/article/oklaho… http://t.co/3kaxkZ9dmd
Clay reportedly had no idea that his wife and Murray were together. It wasn't until he saw some rather steamy phone messages that it became apparent what was happening.
Clay publicly accused his wife of cheating on him and posted what he claimed were intimate text messages between her and Murray on social media.
