Russell Wilson – $135 Million

NFL’s professional football players’ salaries depend on how well they play on the field. Their contract also has a factor in their earnings, depending on how good they are to negotiate with their teams. However, it looks like it is never an issue with the Seattle Seahawks’ quarterback Russell Wilson. After the home game against the Dallas Cowboys in the third week of this year’s regular season, Wilson passed 14 touchdowns in the first three games, setting a record in NFL history.

Rusell has a salary of $35 million, making him the highest-paid quarterback in terms of per-season earnings. So, it is not hard for him to amass $135 million of net worth. In his 2019 contract, he reportedly received a total of $107 million of guaranteed money and another $65 million as a signing bonus. With this huge amount, Russell probably needs the help of his financial advisor to handle his finances well.
