A.J. Brown is a household name and one of the premier wide receivers in the NFL. Since joining the Philadelphia Eagles, Brown has continued to put up monster numbers and help the team contend. While Brown is clearly an elite receiver, is he paid like one? Let’s examine his salary, contract, and net worth.
A.J. Brown’s Contract and Salary
After Brown’s trade to the Eagles in 2022, Philly signed him to a lucrative four-year, $100 million contract extension.
Brown’s deal included a $19.875 million signing bonus and guaranteed the WR $51 million at signing.
Brown signed another extension last offseason, this one for three years and worth up to $96 million, making him the NFL’s third-highest-paid receiver.
Brown is earning $32 million annually — the only wideouts making more are Dallas Cowboys WR CeeDee Lamb ($34 million) and Minnesota Vikings WR Justin Jefferson ($35 million).
When discussing his latest contract, Brown said: “It’s been a huge blessing… Just God having this favor on my life since I was little. It’s tough to understand at times… This is something that just kind of stumbled up on. But God gives us free will, and of course, I have been doing what I’m supposed to be doing, working hard.”
When asked whether he’s worth that much money, the Eagles star said: “I want to prove it. … We don’t play on paper. Nobody cares what’s in the bank account when you step between them lines.”
Brown’s Net Worth and Career Earnings
Brown’s net worth is estimated to be $12 million. Throughout the course of his professional career, he has earned $91,607,060 from his NFL contracts alone.
While his NFL contracts have been his primary source of income, Brown has also secured several endorsement deals that contribute to his overall wealth.
The Mississippi native has partnered with major brands such as Nike, Subway, and Old Spice, adding to his earnings.
Nike signed Brown to an endorsement deal during his rookie year. He has also appeared in digital commercials and promotional content for Old Spice.
The Eagles have started the 2025 NFL season 4-2, and there have been various speculations about Brown’s future in Philadelphia.
The star receiver has not been involved in the offense as he would have hoped for, and the team is struggling. Hopefully, the franchise will figure things out quickly as Brown is one of the best receivers in the league, and the Eagles need to maximize his talent.
Philadelphia will face the Minnesota Vikings next week with hopes to snap its two-game losing streak.
