Ever been counted out, only to come back stronger? Yeah, no doubt, sometimes proving yourself is the ultimate payback. Well, in the case of Jason Myers of the Seattle Seahawks, his story shows what we’re talking about. Why so, you ask? Well, for starters, Myers was overlooked by the professional scouts after his collegiate career. And as a result, the kicker got himself a post as a valet in San Diego.

Fast forward, thanks to his kicking determination, the Jaguars signed him in his rookie season but, folks, Jacksonville wasn’t his home. Talk about his football home? The Seattle team did offer him a contract, but Myers had to shift to the Jets to prove his potential. And guess what? The 33-year-old kicker is now back with the Seahawks, that too with a handsome paycheck.

What is Jason Myers’ salary?

As a welcome to the Seahawks, Myers signed a 4-year contract worth $15.45 million back in 2019. And for the next four years, the kicker from California nailed nearly 100 field goals. Oh, and don’t forget about 2020 when Myers was perfect on field goals—didn’t miss a single one. Well, check this out. In 2023, Myers landed a contract extension, and this time, he’s not gonna miss out on a solid pay boost.

So, the Seattle team offers him a contract extension worth $21 million. If we break out the numbers, Myers scored himself a $7.5 million signing bonus, and $12.3 million guaranteed, no questions asked. And when we look at his annual average salary, well, the guy’s making around $5.3 million. Of course, with the NFL contract only!

Let’s talk about the 2024 scenario, shall we? By the time 2024 rolls around, Jason Myers will earn a base salary of $3.6 million, loud and clear. And not to mention, the Seattle team also wants to make a playoff berth and as it appears, Myers will need to step up this time around to make that happen.

How long is Seahawks Kicker’s contract, and what is his net worth?

After his 4-year contract with the Seahawks wrapped up, Myers inked another 4-year deal. So, he’s set to stick around for at least two more seasons with Seattle. Plenty of time to keep showing why they’re sticking with him. Before entering the gridiron this season, the number 5 had 35 field goals against his name in 42 attempts in the 2023 previous season.

Cut to the present. With the 85.2% rate of field goals, Myers has nailed 23 field goals after he tried 27 times to find the goalpost. At present, the Seahawks are in a quest to clinch the NFC West title as they prepare to face off the Chicago Bears tomorrow.

Now, let’s talk about the big numbers here. Started as an underrated kicker in 2015, Jason Myers now sits with an estimated net worth of $38 million as of 2024. Well, no wonder the NFL contracts with the Seattle team play a crucial role in his net worth. But his performance bonuses and incentives are nothing short of a nice chunk of change. However, there is not much information available about his endorsement deals. But, they don’t seem far away given his reputation as a kicker.
