Fans of the NFL team New Orleans Saints thanked their lucky stars the day Drew Brees became their star quarterback. After an impressive college run at Purdue University and on the San Diego Chargers, Brees became a household name. A 13-time Pro-Bowler, Brees has now led the Saints to their first-ever Super Bowl, and won it for them too, nabbing the coveted Super Bowl MVP award in the process!

Meanwhile, since joining the Saints, Brees has also led all other quarterbacks in touchdowns and passing yards. Of course, this helped him snag a contract currently worth around $29.8 million a year. That’s right! If you also add his endorsement deals to the mix, Brees earns an impressive $44.8 million annually. That makes him one of the highest-paid sports figures out there, with a $160 million net worth.
