NFL Postseason Pay in 2019

The NFL’s CBA (Collective Bargaining Agreement) stipulates that all players, from quarterbacks to centers, earn the same paycheck come playoff time. Paychecks become more valuable as teams advance deeper into the playoffs, culminating in an $118,000 share for players of the team that wins the Super Bowl.

The max pay any player can earn in this year’s playoffs is $230,000, for a member of a division-winning team that plays in all three preliminary rounds AND wins the Super Bowl.
