In this season, as usual and despite the league having a salary cap, there are several stars who will be shining on the playing fields and at the same time they will be collecting incredible sums of money.
Here we present the top 5 of the highest paid players for the 2021-2022 season of the National Football League, a list in which only quarterbacks appear and, believe it or not, the two figures of the tournament are out Aaron Rodgers (Green Bay Packers) and Tom brady (Tampa Bay Buccaneers).
5. Russell Wilson
The quarterback of the Seattle Seahawks It is the last in this list with the 35 million dollars that it will collect in the next season of the NFL. The 32-year-old, who is in his 10th season in the league (all with Seattle), carries on his shoulders the responsibility of leading the Seahawks back to a postseason. His numbers have been growing throughout his career and last season he finished with 40 touchdown passes (personal best).
4. Deshaun Watson
The quarterback of the Houston Texans goes through a difficult time being investigated for allegations of alleged sexual abuse, which could leave him on the sidelines of the season that is about to begin. However, the player’s contract guarantees him $ 39 million for this 2021. Beyond the problems with the law, Watson comes from leaving good numbers in the last season in which he finished with 4,823 yards, the highest figure of the NFL. He also completed 33 passes for scoring.
3. Dak Prescott
The star of the Dallas cowboys He is another of the quarterbacks in this top 5. The player will charge 40 million dollars for which the alarms had been turned on during the training fields when he had presented some discomfort. Despite that, the quarterback is ready to start from the beginning of the season in which he has the goal of advancing to the playoffs.
2. Josh Allen
The quarterback of the Buffalo bills is the second on this list thanks to the 43 million dollars he will collect in 2021. The player, who is in just his fourth season in the NFL He recently signed a millionaire contract with the team he will be with for the next six seasons. Undoubtedly a great bet on the part of the Bills who hope that the quarterback surpasses what he has done in 2020.
1. Patrick Mahomes
