Ex-NFL receiver owes $184,787 in child support

ATLANTA -- An arrest warrant has been issued for former NFL receiver Andre Rison, who owes $184,787 in two states for overdue child support payments, attorney's fees and interest.

It is the fourth time an arrest warrant has been issued for Rison by DeKalb County Superior Court Judge Cynthia Becker for failing to pay child support.

The payments are collectively owed to his ex-wife in Southfield, Mich., and an ex-girlfriend in Atlanta. The Michigan case involves Rison's 16-year-old son, and the Atlanta case involves two sons, 16 and 19 years old.

Rison's Atlanta attorney, Max Richardson, said Monday his client is aware of his obligations in Atlanta, but he may dispute the amount.

In 13 NFL seasons with seven teams, Rison had 743 receptions for 10,205 yards.

He last played in 2000 for Oakland.
