Chris Jones – $37M

Chris Jones’s net worth may only be $3 million, but given that he is on the world’s highest-paid athletes list, having banked $37 million in 2021, we’re sure his fortune will multiply in the upcoming years. The defensive lineman started his “NFL” career with the “Kansas City Chiefs” in 2016 and hasn’t switched teams yet.

Why would he want to leave when the Chiefs pay him good money? An $80 million contract for four years ensures about $20 million annually in salaries. Seeing as Jones made $37 million in 2021, there’s no other conclusion other than he made a banging buck from endorsement deals with brands like “Adidas” and “McDonald’s.”
