There are many things that can be said about Tom Brady. The New England Patriots quarterback has had a ton of success on and off the field over his long playing career. During that time, he has put together a large amount of wealth from playing in New England.
Here is a look at how much Brady is worth now and how he got to that point.

Brady is taken in the sixth round of the NFL Draft with the 199th overall pick. At the time, Brady just looked like a throwaway pick that wasn’t to make the roster and started the season as New England’s fourth-string quarterback. Brady’s salary for his rookie season was $231,500 according to patscap.com.

Brady’s salary begins to rise as he continues winning Super Bowl titles in 2003 and 2004 with him making $15,500,000 in 2005 and $16 million in 2006 according to Forbes. Brady was just getting paid less than Peyton Manning in the process even though he was winning more titles along the way.

Brady leads the Patriots to a perfect 16-0 regular season and comes within one win of the first 19-0 season in NFL history but the Patriots lose to the New York Giants in Super Bowl XLII. Brady’s salary actually went down in 2007 from the $16 million in 2006 to just $6 million.

Brady makes his pay day with a $23,500,000 salary and would add a $33 million salary in 2013 along the way. In the process in 2013, Brady signed a three-year, $27 million extension to carry him through the 2017 season. The deal has been called a steal by experts as Brady could have been making much more money.

Brady gets his fourth Super Bowl title with a win in Super Bowl XLIX which cements his legacy as one of the greatest quarterbacks in football history. During that season, Brady made just $2 million in base salary but added a $9.2 million signing bonus and a $2 million roster bonus.
While Brady has made over $150 million in career earnings from football and endorsements, he probably should been worth a lot more if he took his market value from the Patriots over his career. Brady has proved he is a team player over time and with that comes a slightly lower overall worth.
Brady added his fifth ring in the 2016 season, winning Super Bowl 51 over the Atlanta Falcons. He was named the MVP after setting a Super Bowl record by coming back from a 25-point deficit.
