So I've been a busy bee this morning! I did a little research and discovered the NFL's Highest Paid Players.
Let's break this down...
1. Peyton Manning – Indianapolis Colts (Yes sir! Deserves every penny!)Peyton beat out his brother Eli with good reason and tops the list at $30.8 million–his salary is $15.8 million and he gets $15 million in endorsements
2. Matthew Stafford – Detroit Lions (How could he be so close to Peyton? That doesn't make sense)Barely missing the top spot at $27.6 million. His salary is $26.9 million and $700k he makes in endorsements
3. Eli Manning – New York Giants (Why?)$26.5 million– His salary is $19.5 million and he makes $7 million in endorsements
4. Phillip Rivers– San Diego Chargers (Ok- I can see it)Brining in $25.8 million with his salary being $25.6 million and $200k in endorsements
5. Terrell Suggs – Baltimore Ravens (Yes SIR! Hits for every penny)Tackling for $24.9 million in salary and no endorsements
6. Albert Haynesworth – Washington Redskins (Oh Heck No! This bama doesn't deserve a penny of all this money)Big cry baby makes $24.7 million with a salary of $24.6 million and $100k in endorsements (Endorsements for Who? Pampers????)BTW, he's questionable for Sunday against Houston, his little thumb hurts. :( Poor baby!
7. Brett Farve – Minnesota Vikings (Oh Bret)Raking in a total of $24 million with a salary of $17 million and $7 million in endorsements (Wranglers sure pay a lot!)
8. Darrius Heyward-Bey – Oakland Raiders (Cashing in would be a great term)Cashing in at $21.4 million with no endorsements
9. Jason Smith – St. Louis Rams (Who? LMAO-Just joking)Beating out Peppers with $20.5 million with no endorsements
10. Julius Peppers – Chicago BearsComing in last place as far as the top 10 is Peppers with $20 million and no endorsements
Well good job guys. Most of you deserve it. Minus, Big Baby Haynesworth and I still think Eli is over paid but to all the others, make that money while you can!
