Clinton Portis Facing Six-Figure Tax and Gambling Debts

(Gambling911.com News Wire) - Former NFL running back Clinton Portis is facing a serious tax fine and potentially jail time should he fail to enter into an installment agreement with the IRS.  Portis allegedly failed to pay $401,432.18 in federal income taxes in 2006, and he allegedly failed to pay $57,187.61 in federal income taxes in 2010.

The colorful one-time Redskins player also allegedly incurred a debt to the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas of $287,178.56 last month.  That’s not exactly going to help with paying off these tax fines.

“My lawyers are on top of it,” Portis told TMZ, blaming a bad business deal from 2008. “I’m still eating. Look at my Instagram. I’m not starving. I’m gaining weight.” - Nagesh Rath, Gambling911.com
