How much do sports players get paid?

Answer 1

Averagebasketball player $2.2 million to $220,000baseball player $1.37 million to $109,000hockey player $892,000 to $125,000football player $795,000 to $131,000^^ to the above,

you are an idiot, professionals get paid according to which club they play for and which sponsorships they have, they are never paid a set amount, the amount you get paid is dependant on how good you are, Wayne Rooney is paid £250,000 a week just from Manchester United, other payments from sponsorships he receives brings his weekly total to around £400-500,000 a week. Other "soccer" (if you're American) or football players receive less than £50 per week, dependant on their abilities, all sports conform to this way of payment
it depends on the soccer team, player, position, and how good or bad the team is.

Answer 2

Some of the highest paid athletes in Baseball and footballa are Alex Rodriguez and Peyton Manning in baseball and football, respectively. Rodriguez makes over $29 million per year, while Manning makes over $17 million per year. Many semi professional or minor league athletes make just under fifty thousand dollars, however, and is not a stable career. Professional athletes have unstable jobs at the minor league level.

Answer 3

It depends on the sport and caliber of athlete. Minimum starting salaries are hundreds of thousands of dollars, but often depend on being on the "active" roster. Some contracts are often incentive-laden based on performance. The best atheletes secure mega-million dollar contracts, where a good percentage of that money is guaranteed. The average salary as of 2011 for athletes in the 4 major US sports is as follows:

NBA: $5.15

NFL: $1.9

NHL: $2.4

MLB: $3.31
