The 134 Million Man
Tom Brady could be facing some competition, as Green Bay Packers quarterback, Aaron Rodgers, is here to stay. He is the highest-paid National Football League player for the second time in his career.
“Rodgers and the Packers agreed to a four-year, $134 million contract extension that could be worth up to $180 million if he hits all of his incentives,” Jonathan Jones from Sports Illustrated said.
With the contract in place until 2023, Rodgers will be 40-years-old and supposedly still playing.
“Rodgers told [Sports Illustrated’s] Albert Breer that he wants to start in the 2024 season, and if that holds up, Rodgers-who has made $138.7 million in career earnings before this,” Jones said.
