Related Topics: Divorce

Sad news for Brian Banks -- the football player who was famously wrongly convicted of rape is divorcing his wife less than 2 years after they tied the knot.

Banks made headlines for battling his way into Atlanta Falcons training camp in 2013 after spending 5 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit. His story is reportedly in the works to become a big Hollywood movie.

Banks married Emanuela Marinova in May 2015 -- but things have apparently fizzled ... both sides have filed for divorce.

No kids.
