20
Of The Highest Earning
NFL Players On Instagram
We had a look to see which NFL players are winning not just on the field, but in the social media game too. Topping our Instagram earnings chart is Odell Beckham Jr. with a crazy 17.5 million followers and $94.5K per post. It’s safe to say that the players know how to entertain their audiences, on and off the pitch.
How NFL players Measure Up to Insta Celebs
Whilst OBJ’s numbers aren’t quite as impressive as some of the top followed accounts on Insta such as Cristiano Ronaldo who earns an impressive $3.2 million through a single sponsored post - he still takes the crown for the highest earning NFL player.
METHODOLOGY
The team at OnlineGambling.ca compiled a list of the highest followed NFL players on Instagram. The report includes estimated earnings per post using Hopperhq calculation – they estimate that for every follower on Instagram an influencer is paid 0.0054 cents. For the teams, the top five earning players for each team were combined and an average was found.
Please note, this calculation is an estimate and therefore could be some deviation against these estimations and actual earnings. It is as accurate as possible but please bear this in mind.
