Let’s talk about Miles Austin, for example. Right after his split with Kim, he had a stellar Pro Bowl season with the Cowboys, racking up over 1,000 yards and seven touchdowns. But then, it’s like the curse caught up with him. His numbers never quite reached the heights of his breakout year in 2009. And he bounced around a bit before calling it quits.

Then there’s McCants, who got traded right after his breakup with Khloe. He had a few games with the Kings but never played in the NBA again after that. It’s like the curse followed him wherever he went. And let’s not forget about Derrick Ward. He was on fire with the Giants, rushing for over 1,000 yards. However, things took a nosedive after his split with Khloe. His numbers dipped, and he eventually hung up his cleats for good.
