Darron Lee signed his first professional deal, a four-year deal projected to be worth $10.2 million, last Wednesday with the New York Jets, the franchise that selected him with the 20th overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft.
Sunday night, a Twitter fan asked Lee how he wades through people being nice on social media and people trying to scam him. He responded thusly:
I don't. I'm not buying anyone anything yet. I haven't even bought myself anything lmfao https://t.co/7o7LpZxfFA

Fast forward to Monday. We're told Celebrity Motor Cars, a New Jersey car dealership, will loan Lee a 2017 BMW 640i, which retails for $77,000, for a year in exchange for media and advertising appearances.
Lee promises more videos with FOX Sports as the rookie continues his journey through his first professional training camp.
