The 25 Highest-Paid Players In The NFL
With his new 7-year, $126.7 million contract, Jay Cutler of the Chicago Bears replaces Peyton Manning as the player with the highest base salary in the NFL. However, the largest salary cap hit (base salary plus bonuses and a prorated portion of any signing bonus) belongs to Ndamukong Suh of the Detroit Lions at $22.4 million.
Meanwhile, to no surprise, quarterbacks dominate this year's list with five of the top six and nine of the top 25.
