The 30 Richest NFL Quarterbacks, Ranked In Order
This champion from the 2020 Super Bowl can really only go up when it comes to his net worth. Upon being drafted in 2017, he signed a four-year contract worth $16,200,000. But after the 2019-2020 season, Kansas deemed it necessary to give him a 10-year extension worth well over $400,000,000. He could potentially make $503,000,000 should he make it to the end of his contract. But for now, his net worth will rest at $40,000,000.
Terry Bradshaw’s claim to fame is that he led the Steelers to four Super Bowl victories in six years. It’s an accomplishment that remains unsurpassed. He began his football career in 1970 and retured in 1983. From there he’d become a rather famous TV personality, becoming an NFL analyst, appearing in several commercials, and making appearances in sitcoms. His net worth is currently $45,000,000.
Carson Wentz signed a 40year contract with the Eagles after being drafted second overall in 2016. Despite underperforming and being forced out of the season early due to an ACL injury, he was still offered a 40year extension worth $128,000,000. However, after the 2020-2021 season, Wentz was traded to the Colts. His net worth is $45,000,000.
The former Patriots and Cowboys player is doing quite well for himself. After retiring in 2007, Bledsoe moved to Bend, Oregon, where he lives with his wife and four children. His net worth is currently $48,000,000.
To speak of how much money Tannehill has made, he was on Forbes‘ 2020 list of the highest-paid athletes in the world. That was around the time Tannehill had signed an extension contract with the Titans worth $118,000,000. As of right now, Tanehill’s reported net worth is $50,000,000.
It’s strange that a man that never one a Super Bowl (only making it to the Super Bowl once) is considered one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play in that position. Although, his statistics were certainly incredible. In addition to his football career, which ended in 1999, this Hall of Famer has participated in multiple television and film projects. Combined with the millions he made from endorsements, his net worth is presently $50,000,000.
Alex Smith is probably the player who’s had the most trouble becoming a successful quarterback. After all, he almost lost a leg in 2018 after it got infected during a surgery! It took him 16 operations to get back into fighting form. It was all worth it, as he won the 2020 award for Comeback Play of the Year. His net worth is currently $55,000,000.
Troy Aikman played his entire 12-year career with the Cowboys after being drafter first overall in 1989. He was a six-tome Pro Bowler and won three Lombardi trophies. His base salary was a bit low for quarterbacks by today’s standards, but he’s been supplementing his earnings by working as a Fox television commentator, making $7,500,000 a year. His net worth is currently $60,000,000.
Cousins was picked by Washington’s Football Team in 2012 102nd overall. And while playing there, he threw the 65th perfect game in NFL history. In 2018, he was traded to the Vikings and has become one of the highest paid NFL players still in the game. With a two-year contract extension worth $66,000,000, his net worth worth is $70,000,000.
