Aaron Donald Net Worth 2023

Defensive players in the National Football League don't get paid that much compared to offensive players, specifically quarterbacks.

Aaron Donald's net worth in 2023 probably stands out from the rest of the defenders but that amount is something he earned from a career and reputation he built ever since stepping into the league in 2014.

Donald's childhood was far from what he is experiencing now. The Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle grew up in a working-class family from Pittsburgh and growing up, one of his dreams was to give his parents a good life.

His father introduced him to strength training and that has been his cash cow since high school.

He got drafted as 13^th overall by the Rams in 2014 and was adjudged as the Defensive Rookie of the Year. The strength training exposure paid off handsomely.

Aaron Donald Net Worth 2023: $60 Million

Aaron Donald's net worth for 2023 is $60 million according to Celebrity Net Worth. Much of this earnings is from his NFL career and a few endorsements.

Donald entered the league as a major prospect and he lived up to the hype. His rookie contract was worth $10.13 million with $5.69 million signing bonus and a fifth-year option.

He made 47 tackles, nine sacks, and two forced fumbles in his maiden season, earning himself the top honor for a rookie on the defensive side.

Donald's stock kept rising in the next seasons and by 2017, the Rams exercised their fifth-year option. By this time, the unstoppable 6'1 freight train already has four Pro Bowls and three First-Team All-Pro under his name.

He became the highest-paid defensive player in the history of the NFL the next year after signing a six-year $135 million contract. That is roughly $22 million per year.

The record was broken a few days after by Khalil Mack who signed a $141 million contract. By 2022, the Rams and Donald re-negotiated the contract and the two parties agreed to an additional $40 million, making him the first defensive tackle to earn $30 million per year.

This 2023 season, Donald is earning $31.7 million, the second highest next to Nick Bosa's $34 million.

Aside from his NFL contracts, Donald is also notable for his endorsements, including partnerships with Nike, Hulu, Applebee, EA Sports, Snickers, Pizza Hut, and Dick's Sporting Goods.
