TMZ first reported Ex-NFL star Rodney Peete was in the news for being sued for allegedly running a scam to save the Raiders from being moved to Las Vegas. Ex-NFL Pro Bowl cornerback Carlos Rogers is the one suing Peete saying he scammed Rogers out of $350,000.
Carlos Rogers says Rodney first came to him in 2016 on a scheme to save the Raiders from going to Las Vegas to play their home games. In the lawsuit Rogers says Peete approached him in 2016 with a legit investment deal. The deal said if the Raiders did move to Las Vegas Carlos Rogers would be returned all of his money invested.
We all know now that the Raiders were not saved and will be moving to ‘Sin City’, so Carlos wanted his money back, to no avail. Rodney repeatedly stalled and came up with excuses on why he couldn’t come up with the $350K. This kinda gives me vibes of Ja Rules FyreFest.
Carlos Rogers has filed a claim of fraud on Peete and is requesting his money back plus an extra $100,000 for his troubles.
