Aaron Rodgers net worth: How much does Packers QB get earn from State Farm commercials?
Aaron Rodgers continues to divide opinions on and off the field. His performances this season for the Green Bay Packers have been far below his normal standards. Off the field, his take on many topics has been questionable to say the least. But despite all of that, it remains inarguable that he is one of the greatest quarterbacks to ever play the game.
That drives Rodgers' net worth and makes him one of the richest individuals in the game. On the field, he gets paid extremely well. Off the field, he can always count on endorsements. One of his biggest backers has been State Farm. Let's look at how they contribute to his total net worth. As per reports, Aaron Rodgers has a net worth of around $120 million in 2022.
One of his endorsements is State Farm, with whom the Green Bay Packers quarterback has long been associated. Last season, they backed him when he misled people regarding his vaccination status and views. They released the following statement to USA Today:
"Aaron Rodgers has been a great ambassador for our company for much of the past decade... Our mission at State Farm is to support safer, stronger communities. To that end, we encourage vaccinations, but respect everyone’s right to make a choice based on their personal circumstances."
Despite coming out supporting Aaron Rodgers, they did remove his advertisements from circulation. The exact effect of that is unknown but the quarterback earns $2-$3 million annually due to his association with State Farm. Backing him publicly meant that he could have earned that much from them last year too. But the fact that they removed his ads from circulation could point to internal negotiations, so that figure could differ.
Aaron Rodgers' net worth is set to increase dramatically over the next few years
In addition to State Farm, Aaron Rodgers has other endorsements too. He returned to the Green Bay Packers after signing a three-year deal worth $150 million. As per reports, he is expected to earn $42 million this season, followed by nearly $60 million in 2023 and $49 million in 2024. This will push his net worth up astronomically.
It does depend entirely on whether he plays out his contract. There have been rumors over recent seasons about retirement, and Rodgers himself has admitted that he thinks about it often. If he wins a second career Super Bowl, there is a good chance Rodgers will retire. Alternatively, if the Packers fall onto dark times and a rebuild is in order, will the quarterback have the motivation to stay?
