Alright, so I decided to look into Rae Carruth’s net worth for 2023 today. It popped into my head, and I figured, why not try and track down what the situation might be? Here’s basically how I went about it.

First off, I just did what most folks would do. Opened up a browser and typed in something like “Rae Carruth net worth 2023”. Simple enough start, right?
Got a bunch of results back, mostly from those celebrity net worth websites. You know the ones. And honestly? The numbers were kind of all over the map. Saw one figure here, another totally different one there. It’s always a bit suspicious when you see that much variation. Makes you wonder where they’re getting their info from.
So, my next step was to try and dig a bit deeper. I started looking for more reliable sources, maybe news articles or reports that mentioned his financial situation, especially after he got out of prison. I thought maybe there’d be something official, but no luck there really.
Here’s the thing I kept running into: most of the information is old. We know he made money playing football back in the day. Contracts, signing bonuses, that kind of stuff. But that was a long time ago. Then there was the trial, the conviction, and years in prison. That usually costs a fortune in legal fees, and obviously, you’re not earning anything significant while incarcerated.
Thinking it through logically became key.

- Okay, past NFL earnings? Check, but likely spent or depleted.
- Income while imprisoned? Pretty much zero.
- Income after release? This was the big unknown. What kind of work could he even do? Hard to imagine big endorsement deals coming his way.
- Debts? Legal fees, potential civil judgments… those things can stick around.
I tried searching for recent news about him, what he’s been doing since his release. Found some articles about him being out, but nothing solid about his job or financial status. It’s all very private, which makes sense I guess.
So, after spending a bit of time clicking around, reading different articles, and looking at those net worth sites (which I took with a huge grain of salt), I didn’t really land on a number I felt confident about. Those websites often seem to just estimate or recycle old data.
My final take, based on just trying to piece together the public facts and the realities of his situation? It’s impossible to say for sure. The readily available online estimates feel like pure speculation. Finding a credible figure for 2023 just wasn’t happening with the usual methods. It’s one of those cases where the real number is likely unknown to the public, and maybe quite low or even negative when you consider potential debts. That was my process, and the result was basically acknowledging the lack of reliable info.
