Reggie Bush is a former American football running back known for his exceptional college career at USC, where he won the Heisman Trophy and earned multiple honors.

He played in the NFL for several teams and won the Super Bowl with the New Orleans Saints.

However, his collegiate achievements were overshadowed by allegations of improper benefits, leading to sanctions against USC and Bush voluntarily forfeiting his Heisman Trophy.

Reggie Bush, Brother Javon Griffin: Age Gap

Javon Griffin was born to Reggie and LaMar Griffin and later grew up with his stepbrother Reggie. LaMar is Reggie’s second husband, whom she married in 1989.

Javon (34) has an age gap of almost 6 years with his former NFL brother Reggie Bush (40).

We don’t have much information on Javon as he likes to stay private, but one of his interviews during a basketball game revealed that he likes to play basketball.

He has always supported Reggie and was present with their parents during Reggie’s 2006 NBA Draft, demonstrating his support for his brother’s achievements.

Javon is also famous for the comment he passed on his brother’s relationship with Kim Kardashian.

Javon Comments On Kim Kardashian With TMZ

Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush began dating in 2007 after being introduced at the ESPY Awards.

Their relationship was documented on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, and they seemed headed towards marriage.

However, they split in 2009 to focus on their careers. They briefly reconciled in 2010 and 2012 but ultimately went their separate ways and married others.

TMZ asked Javon Griffin if he had ever wished to be Kim Kardashian’s brother-in-law, to which he replied.

They never liked her and ended the comment by saying she was too much for the family. 

Allegations On Reggie Bush Family

Reggie Bush voluntarily forfeited his 2005 Heisman Trophy due to allegations of receiving improper benefits while playing for USC.

His involvement in an investigation revealed that he and his family had accepted improper benefits, including cash, travel expenses, and a rent-free house.

This violated NCAA rules then, leading to severe sanctions against USC, including four-year probation, loss of scholarships, and a ban from bowl games in 2010 and 2011.

He expressed his honor in winning the award but acknowledged the need to uphold its legacy.

Bush planned to work with the Heisman Trustees to establish an educational program for student-athletes.

This marks the first time a recipient has returned the trophy, sparkled debates on whether the runner-up, Vince Young, should receive it.

While opinions vary, many recognize Bush’s exceptional performance that year and hope for his future success in football.
