Bobby Wagner Net Worth
Bobby Wagner’s net worth is said to be worth over $10 million, according to various sources. The professional linebacker has been in the NFL for a long time now, going into his tenth season in 2022. During his career, he has racked up close to $100 million in earnings through his contracts with the Seahawks.
That should be enough to make him one of the wealthiest people in America. Of course, to increase his net wealth, he will have to save and invest smartly. With endorsement deals from BodyArmour and Nike, Wagner makes a decent sum outside of the pitch as well. He has had to pay $48,000 in fines during his playing career but that is hardly a drop in the bucket for his overall estate.

Wagner made his debut against the Arizona Cardinals, recording four tackles in the 20-16 loss.
