From Field to Fortune: Athletes Who Are Earning More Than Ever

Matthew Stafford – $150 Million

Sport: Football

On-field: $40 Million

Off-field: $5 Million

When Matthew Stafford was traded to the Los Angeles Rams in 2021, his career and earnings significantly boosted. The current contract with the team is a four-year, $160-million deal, including a $60-million signing bonus and $130 million guaranteed. The annual salary averages $40 million.

Matthew, best known for having strong arms, led the Rams to victory in Super Bowl LVI, so it’s safe to say that his brilliance on the field helped him secure endorsements with brands like Nike and Pepsi. He has also invested heavily in real estate, purchasing a $19.6 million mansion in Hidden Hills, California, and two adjacent properties from Drake for $11 million.
