Joe Burrow (Cincinnati Bengals) – $10 Million
Joe Burrow came from a long lineage of athletes, including his football coach father, basketball-playing grandfather, and football-playing uncle. He made it to prominence after a stint with Ohio State, followed by his time at Louisiana State University, where he won the Heisman Trophy.
The Cincinnati Bengals selected him first overall during the 2020 NFL Draft. As the Bengals’ quarterback, he led the team to their first playoff win since 1990 and their first Super Bowl appearance since 1988. Burrow has reportedly become worth $10 million and continues to establish a legacy as “Joe Cool” and “Joe Brrr,” nicknamed after his calmness under pressure personality during games.
