Darren McFadden is suing Michael Vick. No, not that one.
The Cowboys running back is suing his former business manager, Michael Vick, for misappropriating money throughout McFadden's eight-year NFL career. Vick is accused of making bad investments for McFadden, including a failed Bitcoin business venture that lost $3 million, according to The Associated Press.

The suit names Vick, who lives in Mabelvale, Ark., and 10 others simply referred to as "Doe." Vick told the AP on Thursday he hadn't seen the lawsuit and declined to comment. McFadden said Vick is an old family friend whom he trusted to handle finances.
McFadden was the No. 4 overall pick by the Raiders in the 2008 NFL Draft, and initially signed a six-year, $60.1 million contract that included $26 million in guaranteed money. He gave Vick power of attorney in August 2008, but the suit claims Vick obtained that power through fraudulent documents.
McFadden revoked Vick's power of attorney last month.
"Rather than securing for Plaintiff a lifetime of financial security as Defendant Vick promised Plaintiff, Defendant Vick covertly used Plaintiff's income as his personal slush fund to subsidize his own lifestyle and expenses and to invest in his own projects," McFadden claimed in the lawsuit.

McFadden told the Dallas Morning News on Thursday he fired Vick six or seven months ago.
"It's just one of those deals with me as a young guy I wasn't on top of my finances like I should have been and I trusted somebody to take care of everything for me and I don't feel like at the time he had my best interest," said McFadden, who has made an estimated $46.7 million in his NFL career. "It's just one of those things where going back and looking at everything numbers weren't adding up.
"It's just something that's not right, so it's one of those deals where you want to go back and figure out what's going on and what went on."
