Cam Newton says people have NO idea how much of a $120 million NFL contract players actually keep. 😳💸
Using Amon-Ra St. Brown's $120 million extension, Cam broke down where the money really goes.
From his $30 million yearly salary:
- $11.1M — Federal taxes
- $900K — Agent fees
- $890K — Jock tax
- $703K — FICA/Medicare
- $637K — Michigan state tax
That leaves about $15.7 million before everything else.
Then come the people expecting handouts.
> “Parents… gimme.”
> “Homeboys… gimme.”
> “Homegirls… gimme.”
> “Family members… gimme.”
Cam says players also end up paying for luxury suites, tickets, and countless other expenses.
The fans got Deadpool off the ground so many years ago. Yesterday, 10 years after the first film and exactly 2 years after Deadpool & Wolverine, I felt so lucky to be on the #SDCC floor with everyone whose unapologetic devotion brings so much joy to this world.
