Some professional athletes just can't handle the responsibility of having millions of dollars to their name.

Former Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Oakland Raiders defensive lineman Warren Sapp is now one of them.

Sapp, 39, is currently an NFL Network analyst and will file for Chapter 7 bankruptcy, according to FoxSports.com. He currently has more than $6 million in assets, which includes 240 pairs of Jordan sneakers and sandals and a lion-skin rug.

Sapp also owes almost $1 million to the IRS and hundreds of thousands in child support payments. He made more than $40 million during his NFL career and filed for bankruptcy in his home state of Florida.
