These NFL Players’ Houses Leave Us With No Words
Matt Forte –Chicago Mansion, $4.1 Million
Matt Forte is a running back for the New York Jets and formerly played for the Chicago Bears. Forte’s $32 million contract with the Bears led him to settle down in the city’s upscale River North area. In 2015, he spent $4 million on the freestanding home, which features 9,000 square feet, a home theater, a spiral staircase and an indoor elevator. Apparently, the deluxe house isn’t big enough for Forte, though; in 2017, he sought to add a 1,100-square foot extension to the three-story structure, a change that will require a city zoning change and will likely trigger an increase in his property taxes.
