The career of quarterback Vince Young has not been one that many have envied. Sure, he got paid millions of dollars to play in the NFL but he can’t find a job in the league and has squandered all of his savings away in less than 10 years.

Young earned a preseason roster spot with the Green Bay Packers in 2013 but didn’t make the cut and wasn’t called back when the Packers were desperate for quarterback help later in the year. Nevertheless, Vince Young is attempting yet another comeback and will start training for the 2014 season in San Diego.

Per the Houston Chronicle:

"“I am pleased with the quick resolution of my bankruptcy case. With all these battles behind me, I am able to devote my sole focus on family, football and pursuing all opportunities in front of me.”He said in the statement that he will train in San Diego for the next two months in hopes of making an NFL roster in 2014."

Young hasn’t been able to find a job since losing the job as starter in Tennessee and bounced around between the Eagles, Bills and Packers. He recently filed for bankruptcy but appears to be trying to get his life back on track, as well as his career in pro football.
