Last offseason, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers signed Baker Mayfield to a lucrative contract, and he has proven to be worth every bit of the investment. He has exceeded his production from the previous year and is in the midst of a career season. With his strong performance in mind, let’s take a closer look at Mayfield’s contract, salary, net worth, and career earnings.
Baker Mayfield’s Contract and Salary
Mayfield’s deal locks him up through 2027, and it’s worth up to $100 million with $50 million guaranteed. This contract includes $5 million in incentives each year, dependent on his regular-season and playoff performance.
Suppose he finishes in the top 10 in the entire league (or top five in the conference) in touchdown passes, passer rating, passing yards, completion percentage, or yards per pass. In that case, his salary will increase by $2.5 million.
Mayfield is already receiving nice paychecks from Tampa Bay, but he has also earned several bonuses due to his terrific play in 2024. Mayfield put up career-highs in passing yards (4,500), touchdowns (41), completion percentage( 71.4%), rushing yards (378), and rushing touchdowns (three).
With him being an MVP candidate in 2025, Mayfield has all but secured another lucrative contract from the Buccaneers. So far this season, he has thrown for 2,365 yards, 17 touchdowns, and just three interceptions. It wouldn’t be a surprise if Mayfield gets himself a new deal well north of $250 million after this season.
Mayfield’s Net Worth, Endorsements, and Career Earnings
Mayfield’s net worth is estimated to be about $50 million based on the contracts he has had in the past. During his professional playing career, Mayfield has earned $130,760,454 from his NFL contracts alone.
However, he also has numerous endorsements — with some of his more notable partnerships including Progressive, Hulu, BodyArmor, Nike, Leaf Trading Cards, Panini America, and others. He earns a healthy $10 million per year just from endorsements.
Mayfield has made numerous investments in various companies. In fact, he even owns a venture capital firm called Camwood Ventures, which he co-founded with his brother, Matt.
Camwood Ventures has invested in companies such as Cabana Club, Progress Coffee, High Desert, Superstition, Tarform, Apothékary, C2 Ventures, Jack Mason, Goodmylk, Beam, Season Share, Where I’m From, Legends, Wave, PumpJack Dataworks, and Earbuds.
Mayfield has also served as a brand ambassador for some of these brands, including the THC-free CBD company, Beam.
Baker also spends a significant amount of his off-field time giving back to charity and the community. He and his wife, Emily Wilkinson, collected tens of thousands of dollars for Providence House, an organization based in Cleveland that assists at-risk families. Baker once held a joint event with Providence House, raising six figures for the organization.
Additionally, during the COVID-19 pandemic, Mayfield collaborated with another group in Cleveland called TownHall, which helps provide food to those who are unsure where their next meal will come from.
