The star player boasts a net worth estimated at $40 million as of 2022. However, in conversation with Marshall, Hill told his different perspective about wealth. The conversation sprung out when they were talking about Hill’s formative years and how he was raised by his grandparents. Then, Marshall asked Hill how it feels when someone gets paid $30 million a year. To this, Hill replied, “You know how football is, you don’t get all your money. In my contract, everything is backloaded.”

Cheetah also added, “I am not rich at all bro, you see how I’m dressed?” He said this while he was wearing the brand he created. Usually, Hill plays safe when it comes to making comments. Like recently, when he was asked about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s relationship, he didn’t say much.
