NFL players live the high life, they travel in jets, live in mansions and wear tailored fancy suits to night clubs and occasions around the world.NFL players are wealthy. Their salary is not something to scoff at. Today we are going to take a look at the highest paid NFL players and see how much exactly they are making annually.

  1. Breaking it in at number one is none other than Russell Wilson who makes a crazy amount of money. Russell makes $35M in one year. He is the highest paid NFL player.

  2. At the 2nd position we have Ben Roethlisberger who makes a total of $34M at the end of one year. Can you believe that? The quarter back for the stealers. His two- year extension earns him $34M a year with a $37.5M signing bonus. Not only was he the youngest player to win the super bowl but also has cemented his self as the stealers leader.
  3. Aaron Rodgers takes it in at number 3 making a total of $33.5M annually. His four-year extension comes with $57.5M signing bonus. Clearly, Aaron is not going to worry about money anytime soon.  It is said that he is one of the best quarterbacks of all time.
  4. Coming in at number 4 is Jared Goff who makes $33.5M at the end of the year. He signed a four year contract worth $134M so it is fair to say that Jared is in covered in money.
