LOS ANGELES (LALATE) – Antonio Cromartie’s seven kids with six mothers in five states was the subject of news after Monday Night Football this week and HBO’s Hard Knocks.
The NY Post wrote after Monday’s game “Cromartie, the father of the bump-and-run off the field, provides a roll call of his seven children, which includes a trio of 3-year-olds, from six different mothers.” In March the paper claimed that the Jets had to front $500,000 of her $1.7 million salary this year to “clean up his lingering paternity issues”. The Jets would not confirm nor deny the report. The Paper indicated that players don’t get their salary checks until the first week of the regular season.
Cromartie, 25, is entering his final year of a five year $12 million contract. In March, before a court date in California, Antonio admitting the challenge in parenting he faces. “I have seven kids in five different states. I made some wrong decisions my first two years in the NFL, and now I have to take that responsibility to be a father. I need to deal with my kids and child-support issues. Those things are being taken care of. I’m going to be the best father to them that I can.”
