With the Super Bowl just two games away, the Detroit Lions are truly on the verge of making history, again. If they can get by the Commanders, they will be just one step away from reaching the Super Bowl.

Leading the line in blue is Jared Goff, the California native who has been the standout star for the Lions this season. And his value to the team is certainly reflected in his wages, so let’s take a look.

How much does Jared Goff make? What is his salary?

In 2024 Goff signed a four-year extension with the Lions during the off season. The average annual value (AAV) is $53 million with guaranteed money at $170.6 milion. The Lions’ QB will earn $401.6 million in earnings by the time his contract expires in 2028.

What is Jared Goff’s base salary per year?

For the next five seasons of professional football including 2024, Goff will earn the following by year:

  • 2024: $2.6 million
  • 2025: $18 million
  • 2026: $55 million
  • 2027: $40 million
  • 2028: $39 million

The Lions are big favorites agains the Commanders in the divisional round of the NFL playoffs. They have looked solid this year behind Goff’s leadership on offense and one of the league’s best defenses. They have a great chance of returning to the NFC Championship game and then they will be one step away from the Lions’ first Super Bowl.
