Jared Goff’s NFL career has had an interesting arc. The 2016 No. 1 overall pick guided the Los Angeles Rams to a Super Bowl in 2018, but after a two-year slump, the 26-year-old signal-caller was traded to the Detroit Lions for 33-year-old Matthew Stafford and a haul of draft picks.
After initially being viewed as a salary dump in the Stafford trade, Goff revitalized his career with the Lions, helping head coach Dan Campbell turn the franchise around. Goff has played some of the best football of his career in Detroit and emerged as a fan favorite after helping the Lions win their first playoff game in 32 years.
Recently, Detroit rewarded Goff with a massive four-year, $212 million extension. After inking the monstrous deal, what is Goff’s salary and net worth? And how much has he earned throughout his NFL career?
Jared Goff’s Salary and Contract
Goff is earning $53 million annually, which is tied with San Francisco 49ers QB Brock Purdy for the seventh-highest-paid quarterback in the NFL.
The only quarterbacks earning more than Goff are Miami Dolphins QB Tua Tagovailoa ($53.1 million), Green Bay Packers QB Jordan Love ($55 million), Jacksonville Jaguars QB Trevor Lawrence ($55 million), Cincinnati Bengals QB Joe Burrow ($55 million), Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen ($55 million), and Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott ($60 million).
Goff’s deal, which features $170 million in guaranteed money, will keep him in the Motor City through the 2027 season and contains an option for the 2028 campaign.
While the deal shocked some, the Lions believe in their core and prioritized extending their cornerstone piece. Last offseason, they gave multi-year deals to four of their franchise cornerstones: Goff, Amon-Ra St. Brown ($120 million), Penei Sewell ($112 million), and David Montgomery ($18.25 million).
What Is Goff’s Net Worth?
Goff’s net worth is estimated to be approximately $100 million, so it’s safe to say that his bank account is doing just fine.
Goff has made $241,627,068 in career earnings from his NFL contracts alone. He is one of the highest-paid NFL players ever, as he has the 13th-highest career earnings in league history. Goff has the sixth-highest career earnings among active NFL players, trailing only Aaron Rodgers, Stafford, Russell Wilson, Kirk Cousins, and Prescott.

This figure doesn’t even take into account Goff’s endorsement deals. While the majority of Goff’s net worth comes from his NFL contracts, he’s also partnered with brands such as Banana Republic, BMW, Bose, Hulu, Nike, Pizza Hut, and Red Bull. In 2019, Goff launched his only clothing line, JG16, and he donates the proceeds to charity.
Goff has invested in several companies, including $10 million in Underdog Fantasy, $4 million in Glasslab, and an undisclosed amount in Friday Beers. In March 2020, he donated $250,000 to the Los Angeles Food Bank during the COVID-19 pandemic.
