#5: Raghib Ismail
Raghib “Rocket” Ismail’s post-retirement journey is an unconventional tale of ventures that missed the mark, making him a contender for the title of the athlete with the most failed businesses, as reported by Sportscasting — not exactly a badge of honor anyone would covet. After hanging up his cleats, this swift wide receiver delved into a series of entrepreneurial endeavors that were not so successful.
Despite being dubbed “Rocket” for his lightning speed and securing the 75th spot on the College Football News list of Top 100 players, Ismail’s promise didn’t quite materialize in the professional arena. He embarked on a whirlwind journey, switching teams and leagues. While his current net worth hovers somewhere between $1-5 million, it’s evident that his entrepreneurial hiccups chipped away at his fortune.
