According to ESPN magazine Eric Berry is the 40th highest paid player in the world. Including signing bonus for the current calendar year. I dont see any soccer names but the list does include boxers and formuka 1 drivers.

It says hell make $19,321,200. Includes signing bonus, salary, and other bonuses.

Thank God they fixed the CBA and got away from these kinds of contracts for the rookies. Love Berry to death and if he stays healthy he'll be on the feild enough to earn it but that's a ton of money. Remember his rookie year he played over 100 snaps more than anyone on the roster and was voted captain by the defensive unit for 2011.

All I want for Christmas is for him to run through that effin Stevie Johnson every time that bum catches a ball when we play them.

Makes me absolutely sick

Agreed. No one will EVER "earn" 19 million dollars to play a season of football, no matter how well they do.

Thts what his cap is this includes salary plus signing bonus and other incentives. Go buy espn the magazine it gives u a list of the 50 highest paid athletes in the world, however i dont think soccer was taken into effect because yhere are none on the list.

I actually thought it was cool to see a chief on the list.

That almost has to figure in his endorsement deal, he supposedly has a $25 mil deal with adidas. Probably has a couple more. IIRC his NFL garantee was $32, max at $60.

Agreed its nice to see one of the "KC Cheaps" on there.

according to forbes berry is not in the top 50 but there are 8 nfl players listed. bottom line is who really cares, if he lives up to the hype of being a perrenial all pro safety then pay him. he was pre rookie cap so its old news.
