Chandler Jones is currently on a five-year contract with the Arizona Cardinals. He stands to make $82 million by the end of 2022 if he meets all the requirements originally negotiated.
The outside linebacker received a $15 million signing bonus in 2017 and averages $16.5 million in base salary each year. $51 million of his total contract has been guaranteed by the Cardinals.
This easily makes him one of the wealthiest athletes on the planet, eligible to receive another bumper deal next. Can Jones leverage his market value to make even more? We will have to wait and see. He was originally on a four-year rookie deal with the Patriot which understandably made him a fraction of what he earns now.
Chandler Jones’s net worth in 2022 is estimated to be around $7 million, according to various sources. Athletes, even the wealthy ones, become a source of income not just for himself but for all the people around him as well. Taking care of your close ones cost a pretty penny and Jones knows it. He has made over $100 million from his contracts in the National Football League.
With many more years left in the tank, Jones could easily increase his net worth in the coming years. He will have a sit down with the Cardinals this year to discuss a contract extension. He could potentially land another lucrative deal to bump up his total value. With other business ties to Nike and Twitch, we can assume that Jones will not be running out of money anytime soon.
Chandler Jones’ greatest source of wealth has been the NFL but he has not reached here without making sacrifices. The Cardinals linebacker attended Union-Endicott High School where he was the eight-best prospect in New York state. He played three seasons for Syracuse College between 2008 and 2011.
He did not play at all in his freshman season but featured in 12 games right after. Jones recorded 57 total tackles, four sacks, four passes defended, and three forced fumbles as a junior.
He missed 6 games in his senior year but was still an All-Big East selection after recording 39 tackles and 4.5 sacks. The New England Patriots jumped at the opportunity to select him 21st overall in the 2012 NFL Draft. Jones became the highest-selected player from Syracuse since defensive end Dwight Freeney in 2002.
Jones was hospitalized due to an allergic reaction to synthetic marijuana in 2015. He did play in the Divisional Playoff game against the Kansas City Chiefs and the AFC Championship game against the Denver Broncos right after.
His career highlights include –
Chandler Jones is the youngest of three sons. The eldest, Arthur is a former defensive end in the NFL.
