Last month, New York Giants nose tackle Shaun Rogers signed a new one-year contract with the team for just over a million dollars. According to a CBS Miami report, a collection of jewelry worth close to half of that was swiped from his hotel room at the Fontainebleau Monday morning.

Via CBS Miami:
Rogers, 34, told police he left his room around 1 a.m. with some friends and headed to Club Liv. While at the club, Rogers and his group allegedly met a woman who the group would bring back to Rogers' room, according to Miami Beach Police.
Rogers told Miami Beach Police he put his valuables in the room safe when he returned around 7 a.m. and the party continued until the nose tackle fell asleep. According to police, Rogers said at 12:30 p.m., he awoke and found the woman the group had met the night before was no longer there.
Once he realized the woman wasn't there, Rogers told police he tried unsuccessfully to get into the room's safe. Hotel security then came to the room and was able to pry open the safe and found Rogers' valuables were missing.
Among the items Rogers said were stolen were: diamond earrings worth $100,000; two wristwatches worth a combined $160,000; a gold necklace with gold pendant worth $50,000; gold bracelets worth $60,000; and a diamond Cuban necklace with a gold pendant worth $70,000.
The total amount of those items - $430,000 - is only $3000 less than how much the 34-year-old Rogers will make if he ends the 2013 season on injured reserve like he did last year.
The 12-year NFL veteran, who was arrested in 2010 on a felony gun charge for having a loaded gun in a carry-on bag at Cleveland Airport and fined $400,000 by the league despite having the charges dismissed, has earned around $30 million during his playing career.
Regardless of his prior income or whether the assortment was insured, why is Rogers rocking nearly half a million in jewelry like he's a starlet at the Oscars anyway? For that kind of money, he could've supplied Buzz Bissinger's wardrobe for two years.
