    Not in the US top 50, Tommy.

    Brees, Schaub and the Mannings are the QBs in there.

    Didn’t Brady accept a lower salary so the Patriots could free up cash for the rest of the squad, given salary cap restrictions in the NFL.

    I remember seeing before nearly all the top 10 earn the major share off sponsorships but mayweather is the only one who gets nothing from sponsorship all winnings.
