What do you get in mind when you think about NFL stars? Names like Patrick Mahomes and Aaron Donald probably come to mind first, but what about Terron Armstead? He is the quiet powerhouse keeping the Dolphins’ offensive line together. Armstead is as valuable as a diamond to his team, but he’s not out there taking all the glory. Armstead is known for his skills on the field, but he also plays the piano during his downtime.
Armstead’s career has been nothing impressive, nothing short of impressive, just like his height 6’5″, from being a third-round draft pick to one of the highest-paid left tackles in the NFL.
What is Terron Armstead’s net worth?

While there isn’t any solid information on that, Terron Armstead’s net worth is estimated to be around $15 million to $20 million. Not bad for a guy who started with the New Orleans Saints back in 2013. After nine seasons with the Saints (nearly a decade) Armstead joined the Dolphins in 2022. While he changed teams, his bank account balance got more moolah flowing in.
As his on-field performance is a success, Armstead has managed to keep things pretty low-key off the field. He is well known for staying humble, even as his wealth grows. And when he’s not protecting quarterbacks, he’s playing the piano. But what’s interesting is that the OT can rake in more money from the Phins’ if he is present for a certain time.

Yep! That’s right! The player has a Playing Time incentive clause added to his 2024 ad 2025 season where he could have earned up to $1.8 million for being a part of 80% of games this season. And in 2025 he can rake in north of $300,000 for showing up in at least 48% of the games.
What is the Phins’ LT’s salary?
Terron Armstead is currently raking in a base salary of $1.21 million, with a signing bonus of $7.3 million. And that’s not all, he has a cap hit of $10.5 million and a surprising dead cap value of over $27 million for 2024. With Time incentives thrown in, it’s clear the Dolphins are more than happy to pay for his rock-solid presence on the offensive line. Let’s be honest with ourselves, left tackles don’t usually get all the attention, right? But Armstead is definitely sitting at some pretty numbers—there is no doubt about it!

Armstead was previously in contract with the Dolphins for five years, but later, it was renegotiated to 3 years with new terms and newer numbers in 2024. Lasting till 2026, this contract brings him over $10 million in guaranteed money. It’s clear the Dolphins are planning to utilize him for some more seasons.
This deal isn’t just a casual handshake—it’s Miami’s way of saying, ‘We want you to stick around.‘ With this contract in place, you can bet we’ll be seeing plenty more of him around the Dolphins’ line. However, for now the LT is doubtful to appear for the next game.
