NFL players get 17 game checks a season, so you'd figure they would know the whereabouts of each and every one of them. Well, that isn't always the case, apparently.

Atlanta Falcons linebacker Sean Weatherspoon revealed that his lady found one of those 17 paychecks while the couple was moving.

Weatherspoon made roughly $2.4 million in 2015, meaning that one check was roughly worth $138,000. Not exactly finding change between the couch cushions like the rest of us.

Weatherspoon tried to explain how he could have let this one get by him.
