What is Peyton Manning's net worth?
Manning earned more than $248M in salary during 18 NFL seasons
Even in retirement, longtime NFL quarterback Peyton Manning remains one of the top-paid figures in professional sports.
Manning, 43, retired after the 2015 NFL season as the highest-earning player in league history. He earned more than $248 million in salary during 18 NFL seasons.
Manning’s record stood until earlier this year, when his younger brother, longtime New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning, retired with more than $250 million in career earnings from salary. However, massive contracts were only one source of income for the elder Manning brother.

In retirement, Manning has shifted toward work in the media, hosting a docuseries, "Peyton’s Places," on the ESPN+ streaming service. He reportedly turned down an offer to join the broadcast booth for ESPN’s "Monday Night Football" prior to the 2019 season.
Manning has also been linked to potential political aspirations, though he has not publicly indicated that he will one day run for office. In 2017, then-outgoing Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.) said it was "possbile" that Manning could run for an open U.S. Senate seat in the state. Manning played college football at the University of Tennessee.
