Aaron Donald (Los Angeles Rams) – $60 Million

Aaron Donald is regarded as one of the greatest defensive players in football history, and he has lent this expertise to the Los Angeles Rams since 2014. He has seven first-team All-Pro honors, received Pro Bowl selections for his nine seasons, and has been hailed as the Defensive Player of the Year three times.

His success in the field urged the Rams to extend his contract and made him the first non-quarterback to have approximately $30 million per season. Outside of football, Donald also shares a passion for real estate with his wife. He placed a Calabasas gated community mansion on the market for $6.25 million in 2022.
