Good thing it's an uncapped year if this is true...

Because he was traded, he gets no signing bonus and evidently child support issues are pressuring him.

excerpt from article
NFL Network first reported Saturday that the Jets were advancing their newly acquired cornerback $500,000 to help clear up paternity issues.

The 25-year-old Cromartie has fathered seven children by six women in five states. He has a court date scheduled for later this month in California.

Cromartie, acquired last week from San Diego, is due to make $1.7 million in the last season of his five-year, $12 million contract. The Jets reportedly made $500,000 of the deal into a bonus, allowing Cromartie to receive it now, instead of when players receive game checks in September.

Oh wait, I forgot he was traded, not signed as a free agent.

I don't wake up before 10 a.m. ;)

Having a family reunion would be a logistical nightmare for this idiot. Great "character guy," that Cromartie. I think we should throw diapers at him when he visits Gillette.

Its an understatement to say that this guy was out of control.

I just hope that Tom Brady doesn't hang with him post game.

Yes, and his $12M contract is down to the last $1.7M. The Jest are converting part of his salary to bonus since he's short of cash to support his brood (not to mention his agent). Needless to say, he's not got himself in hand...
