Patrick Mahomes – $54.5M

Patrick Mahomes’s net worth may only be $40 million, but it looks like he is on the right path to keep multiplying it. Did you know that the “Kansas City Chiefs,” with whom he’s been since 2017, offered him a ten-year contract extension worth up to $503 million in 2020?

Of course, he took it. Who would turn down that kind of money? A one-time “Super Bowl” champion, “NFL,” and “Super Bowl” MVP, Mahomes made $54.5 million in 2021. It includes paychecks from brands he represents, such as “Adidas” and “Head & Shoulders.” According to Forbes, he also signed a new equity deal with “BioSteel Sports Nutrition.”

Tom Brady – $76M

After 20 seasons with the “New England Patriots” of the “NFL,” Tom Brady took his fans by surprise after signing a two-year contract with the “Tampa Bay Buccaneers” in 2020. The contract is worth $50 million in guaranteed money, which means his minimum income for one year would be $25 million.

Since Brady does a lot more than just play football, his annual income came up to $76 million. Other income sources include endorsements with brands such as “UGG” and “Tag Heuer” and his lifestyle brand “TB12.”Considered the best quarterback of all time, Brady has won seven “Super Bowl Championships” so far, becoming “NFL” MVP thrice.

Dak Prescott – $107.5M

According to “Celebrity Net Worth,” the American football quarterback Dak Prescott is only worth $40 million. However, in the year ending 2021, his income stood at a record $107.5 million, which primarily consisted of the $66 million signing bonus he got from the four-year contract extension signed with the “Dallas Cowboys.”

Prescott’s contract will earn him $160 million across four years. Since he has now invested in “Walk On’s” casual dining restaurant group in Texas, he can expect his net income to grow in the upcoming years. Prescott has been with the Cowboys since 2016 but is yet to win an “NFL Championship.”
