He rushed for over 6,000 yards in the NFL… but Alfred Morris never stopped driving his $2 Mazda from college.
The car—a beat-up 1991 Mazda 626 he bought from his pastor for just two bucks in 2010—was nicknamed “Bentley” and became a symbol of Morris’s humility. Even after signing a multimillion-dollar contract with Washington, he stuck with it.
