A former NFL player has revealed he has made $5m in seven months after switching to a surprisingly lucrative second career - selling Pokemon cards.
Blake Martinez announced a sudden retirement from the sport in November after seven seasons with the Green Bay Packers, New York Giants and Las Vegas Raiders.
He has since turned his hand to a hobby first picked up during the pandemic that is now paying dividends.
The former linebacker launched Blake’s Breaks in July 2022, committing full-time after retirement and reportedly earning more than £4m in just seven months, according to CNBC.
