-- It’s safe to say NFL fans are not sick of buying Tom Brady jerseys.
The NFL Players Association released a report filed under the Department of Labor revealing Brady led the NFL in royalties with $2.35 million last season.
The report shows how much each NFL player made from "group listings," which is when a deal is comprised of six players or more, and the majority of the profit is made from, “jersey (Nike), video game and trading card sales.”
Brady’s earnings don’t include his own individual endorsements, like Ugg and Aston Martin. According to Forbes, Brady earned $27 million in 2018 and $12 million of that came from endorsements.
Dak Prescott came in second on the list with $2 million earned and Antonio Brown is third with $1.5 million.
