how do pro football players get paid?

Question

players sign million dollar contracts. do they get paid before or after the season? is it a lump sum?

Answer 1

BY A CHECK!!!!!!!!!

Answer 2

I've coached semi-pro football for a while, and been involved with leagues all over the country in one way or another, and can tell you that most semi-pro players do not get paid at all. One of the reasons semi-pro football exists is to help young men get college scholorships, and if they got paid they would no longer be elgible for college ball. The way the rule actually reads they can't even play on a team where any player is paid or they lose their college elgibility.

Answer 3

Pro football players get paid every Monday for for an entire football season. They continue to get paid if they make the playoffs and the Superbowl. They don't get paid during the offseason unless their contract has a clause for them to do so.They get paid by direct deposit.

Answer 4

Pro players get paid cyclically, just like "regular" people......either in check form every week (or every two weeks) or by direct deposit.

Answer 5

they get paid year by year, if they sign a 5 year deal for 5 million, they will get paid a million every year. they also have signing bonuses which they get right after they sign and some have incentive bonuses if they do good. they get the money directly deposited in to there accounts

Answer 6

In Russian Rubles.
