Does Aaron Rodgers Earn Double the Amount Tom Brady Earns on Average Annual Salary?
Follow Us
With the 2022 offseason just around the corner, there would be a lot of talk about quarterback salaries and some hypothetical explosive deals which have occurred. This is, without a doubt, the most crucial role in the contemporary NFL. Popular names like Tom Brady, Patrick Mahomes, and Aaron Rodgers top the charts. However, they have a drastic difference in one thing: payroll.
The play-calling marketplace in the NFL has grown dramatically in recent years, and also for a worthwhile purpose. The quarterback position is by far the most fundamental in the league. No team wants to be with a signal-caller who is unstable.

It was once unusual for an NFL franchise to commit a $100 million contract. For quarterbacks, this is now standard. This spike is partly due to a gain in aggregate commercial revenue, but it is primarily because of the threat of losing an upper edge quarterback.
Who tops the double-digit-incentive figure?
In terms of overall annualized worth, Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers is now the only player who makes more than $50 million a season, making him the league’s highest-paid quarterback. According to Spotrac, Aaron Rodgers committed to a three-year, $150,815,000 deal with the Green Bay Packers, which included a $40,800,000 signing bonus and a guaranteed sum of $150,815,000.
Rodgers will earn $1,150,000 in base salary, $40,800,000 in signing bonus, and $50,000 in workout bonus in 2022, with a cap hit of $28,533,569 and a dead cap value of $150,997,137.

The fact that Tom Brady, one of the finest quarterbacks of all time, isn’t among the top ten highest-paid athletes is noteworthy. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers quarterback earns $25 Million per season. That’s only 50% of Aaron Rodgers’ average pay. The athlete agreed to a one-year, $25 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, which includes a $20 million signing bonus and a $25 million guarantee.

Tom Brady has made more wealth in his NFL course than any other professional. In his illustrious 22 year career in the NFL, he earned $302.6 million in earnings. Now that the athlete is un-retired, he will add to that total for the 2022 season. He returns with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for his 23rd season.
Aaron Rodgers currently has a net worth of $200 million. The athlete’s future is now certain after two years and earning back-to-back MVPs. His commitment with the Packers will inevitably make an increment over his absolute wealth in the future.
