Tom Brady Tops a List of the NFL's 10 Most Underpaid Players

              

Here's the full list . . .

 

 

1.  Tom Brady, New England Patriots.  He earns $14 million . . . but 19 quarterbacks are paid more.

 

 

2.  Rob Gronkowski, New England Patriots.  He gets $6.75 million . . . but eight tight ends are paid more.

 

 

3.  Casey Hayward, Los Angeles Chargers.  He makes $5.08 million . . . but 30 cornerbacks are paid more.

 

 

4.  Donald Penn, Oakland Raiders.  He earns $7.15 million . . . but 18 left tackles are paid more.

 

 

5.  Richie Incognito, Buffalo Bills.  He makes $4.92 million . . . but 21 left guards are paid more.

 

 

6.  Tyrod Taylor, Buffalo Bills.  He makes $9.71 million . . . but 21 quarterbacks are paid more.

 

 

7.  Eric Berry, Kansas City Chiefs.  He makes $5 million . . . but 21 safeties are paid more.

 

 

8.  Travis Frederick, Dallas Cowboys.  He makes $4.51 million . . . but nine centers are paid more.

 

 

9.  Mario Addison, Carolina Panthers.  He makes $4.35 million . . . but 34 defensive ends are paid more.

 

 

10.  They listed TWO here:  Brent Grimes of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.  He makes $8 million, but 23 cornerbacks make more.  And Brandon Marshall of the New York Giants.  He makes $4.46 million, but 38 wide receivers are paid more.

 

 

They lumped those together because they're underpaid for the same reason:  They're both aging players who were let go by their former teams in cost-cutting moves . . . but who can still play at a high level.

 

 

"USA Today" didn't include players who are still on their rookie contracts, and they didn't count signing bonuses . . . only each player's official salary cap number.
