RUSSELL WILSON—$135 MILLION

American football quarterback, Russell Wilson, who currently plays for the Seattle Seahawks of the National Football League, is reportedly worth a whopping $135 million. Interestingly enough, he was often overlooked because of his small stature (he’s not tiny, of course, but could be, compared to his colleagues in the sport), but was eventually able to prove everyone wrong and make a name for himself in the league.

And, to anyone who doubts Russell’s value to the league need only look at his contract which is valued at $87.6 million for a mere four years. The man, to his credit, is a phenomenal player, and we have no doubt that his net worth will increase—or even double—in the near future. As follows, for those of you that did not know, Wilson does not only play football, but he plays basketball and baseball as well. It goes to show that he is talented in sports.
