Many people might not be aware of the fact that former Green Bay Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has the most expensive home among all the NFL players.
“People who know me, I’m fortunate to live in a beautiful house,” Rodgers said after being traded to the New York Jets. “The only downside is I have very limited cell service. If you want to get ahold of me, I need to see your face. You have to FaceTime me.”
Rodgers cited that as the reason he was unable to return calls from Packers’ general manager Brian Gutekunst this past offseason.
Rodgers’ house in Malibu, California costs a reported $28 million and is $6,040 per square foot. The information was recently dug up by Betting.com when they analyzed the cost of the richest NFL athlete’s homes.
This in turn revealed which professional football stars own the most expensive pieces of properties and how much they are worth per square foot.
Rodgers was the 24th pick in the 2005 NFL Draft, is currently entering his 19th season in the NFL. His total career earnings are a whopping $305.6 million.
Rodgers is closely followed in the second position by Denver Broncos quarterback Russell Wilson with a home that is worth $25 million. Wilson’s Denver house is 20,060 square feet. It also happens to be the largest property in the NFL’s top 10 ranking.
Tom Brady takes the third spot as the retired quarterback purchased a $25 million property and surrounding land in Miami, Florida. He then demolished the property in order to make way for a brand new 17,000-square-foot mansion.
