He won an MVP in his first season as a starter and a Super Bowl the following year.Mahomes will likely earn another MVP for his performance during the 2022 season and  David Freese Jersey is hoping to add a Super Bowl to his legacy.But whether he wins or not, he will be compensated heftily for his servicesMahomes is currently the highest-paid player in NFL history. He is set to make a lot of money over the course of his record-breaking deal with the Chiefs, and it will be hard for Enrique Hernandez Jersey  any NFL player to justify demanding a contract similar to his.Just how much is Patrick Mahomes' contract worth? Here's everything to know about his finances as he competes in his fifth consecutive AFC Championship Game.BENDER: Patrick Mahomes contract detailsMahomes is in the first year of a 10-year, $450 million contract that he signed during the 2020 offseason to make him the highest-paid player in NFL history.Mahomes is set to make an average of $45 million per season as a part of his contract and will have a cap hit of at least $41.95 million in each season through 2031. He will be 36 by the time his deal expires.Below is a breakdown of his contract, including his base salary, bonuses and cap hit, per .YearBase salaryTotal bonusesCap hit2022$1,500,000$34,293,381$35,793,3812023 A.

That is highly unlikely to happen barring a significant regre sion or injury to the team's star quarterback.POWER RANKINGSatrick Mahomes career earningsMahomes may have  Fernando Valenzuela Jersey the NFL's largest contract at this time, but his career earnings are not yet among the league's highest.Mahomes has earned$76,904,472during his career to date. That ranks 76th all time among NFL players, one spot ahead of Broncos safety Kareem Jackson ($76,680,351) and one spot behind Bills guard Rodger Saffold ($77,071,073).Incredibly, Mahomes doesn't even have the highest career earnings among players currently on the Chiefs. Defensive ends Carlos Dunlap ($81,140,148) and Frank Clark ($79,013,295) rank 67th and 72nd all time respectively.That said, Mahomes is going to continue climbing up the list, according to Spotrac.com's projections. He will vault into the top 10 by 2026 and will have the third-highest career earnings in NFL history by 2030. At that  Justin Turner Jersey point, he will trail only Ru sell Wilson and Aaron Rodgers for the top title.Of course, much will occur over the next decade that will change those projections. But either way, Mahomes will be on a clear upward trajectory for the duration of this deal.MORE NFL PLAYOFFS:||Patrick Mahomes net worthAccording to , Mahomes' net worth is $40 million. This may seem like Hyun-Jin Ryu Jersey  a low-ball number, but it must be noted that Mahomes is in just the first year of his $45-million-per-year deal, so he hasn't yet seen most of the money that the Chiefs will owe him.Additionally, Mahomes has invested in several sports teams including MLB's Royals, MLS' Sporting Kansas City, NWSL's Kansas City Current and a profe sional pickleball team in Miami. He also invested in several Kansas City and Mi souri-based Whataburger franchises in 2021.As such, it makes sense that Mahomes' net worth would come in below his career earnings to date. Both numbers should increase substantially in the next couple of years as Mahomes gets deeper into his lucrative deal.  (Getty Images)  NFL's highest-paid quarterbacksMahomes Corey Seager Jersey  is the NFL's highest-paid quarterback in terms of the total value on his contract. His isn't just the only deal league-wide that exceeds $400 million in total value; it also is the only one to exceed $300 million.Below is a look at the 10 largest quarterback contracts in the NFL, per :RankPlayerValue1Patrick Mahomes$450 million2Josh Allen$258 million3Ru sell Wilson$242.6 million4Kyler Murray$230.5 million5Deshaun Watson$230 millionT-6Dak Prescott$160 millionT-6Matthew Stafford$160 million8Aaron Rodgers$150.8 million9Matt Ryan$150 million10Jared Goff$134 millionThat said, a few quarterbacks have pa sed Mahomes in terms of the average annual value (AAV) that they are making as part of their deals. Aaron Rodgers currently is making about $50. Los Angeles Dodgers Jersey 3 million, which is good for the most in the NFL.Below is a look at the 10 largest quarterback contracts in terms of AAV league-wide:RankPlayerAAV1Aaron Rodgers$50.3 million2Ru sell Wilson$48.5 million3Kyler Murray$46.1 million4Deshaun Watson$46 million5Patrick Mahomes$45 million6Josh Allen$43 million7Derek Carr$40.5 millionT-8Dak Prescott$40 millionT-8Matthew Stafford$40 million10Kirk Cousins$35 millionSo, when considering the AAV of Mahomes' deal, it seems like he was a steal for the Chiefs. It will be interesting to see if any more quarterbacks jump him in that category over the coming offseasons.But as it stands, it's hard to imagine any NFL players  save for maybe Joe Burrow  challenging the total value of Mahomes' deal.
