According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, Goodell will receive $40 million a year if he gets all his bonuses and earns all his incentives. That means the deal could pay him as much as $200 million through the 2023 season, when it is set to expire.

It's a shocking sum for a league official - the vast majority of athletes will never see that kind of money, especially by way of one contract. Those that have cleared the $200 million mark include some of the greatest players active today, though there are a couple of names who have struggled since signing mega-deals.

Below, find out more about the stars in the $200 million contract club, of which Goodell is now a member.
