Tony Romo per game salary 2013-2016 - $1.9M

[Jumbo075]

In 2013, Tony Romo famously signed a 6-year, $108 million contract extension. Combined with the $11.5 million he was already owed as salary in 2013, that gave him a 7-year, $119.5 million contract at the start of the 2013 season. In the 4 seasons from 2013-2016, Romo played only 34 games, and collected $65.5 million - an average of $1,926,470.58 per game played. That is the equivalent of $30.82 million per 16 games played.

Keep this in mind when you hear news about the contracts QB's are getting today.

Update: The numbers above are documented, and indisputable. Calling them dishonest doesn't change the facts. All inferences derived from this information are the responsibility of those making the inferences.

This is an incredibly dishonest post on several levels.

The anti-Dakers are already hating on you about this info, Jumbo, especially what's in bold. It destroys their "don't pay that greedy Dak" agenda.

Only on planet Ky31.

I know the point you’re trying to make, but Tony making that $$ per game is completely unrelated and irrelevant to Dak’s situation.


Some believe Dak isn’t worth the money; others believe he is. Really nothing is going to change the narrative. We’ll all just have to accept it when he eventually does get paid

I'm really happy for Tony -- surely seems to me he's sitting pretty these days. He's got it made!

Fame, fortune, beautiful wife & family and likely among the best NFL sports announcers on TV.

Bingo!

Ok, hold on. Romo only played 34 games in those four seasons because he was injured for many games. This is an artificially high pay-per-game statistic.

This would be like if Dak got a $35 million per year contract, but tore his ACL near the end of Game 1, and thus his detractors claimed "Dak was paid $35 million per game."

Players are paid by contract regardless of whether their bodies are physically able to play or not. You don't forfeit your salary because you are on injured reserve or can't start.

It’s my planet...of Murray doesn’t fumble against the packers...of the Dez catch is ruled correctly the narrative is very different...have a nice day sir!!

 

[John813]

If only players were paid per game PLAYED and not weekly, injured or not.

This is a thread where op tried too hard.

Post makes no sense.

jesus some of y’all are stuck in the past . Murray fumble yes .Dez catch was ruled correctly as much as I hate it. Besides who had confidence the defense was going to hold up had we scored

if Romo would have just hit the wide open Beasley underneath they very well may have scored without leaving Rodgers time

but that was just his nature go for juggler take the risky path versus the more methodical path

he was a gunslinger to a fault and it didn’t always work out in his favor that’s why his dumb butt was always hurt at the end of career

well that and Garrett and jones putting him in a tough spot earlier in his career
