NFL Starting Quarterback 2017 Salaries

Here are the 32 starting quarterback in the NFL and how much they will get paid for the 2017 season.

The deal that Detroit Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford signed this week will make him the league's highest paid player.

Stafford’s new deal is worth $135 million over five years, $10 million more than the Raiders’ Derek Carr, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports.

While Stafford now has the league's most valuable contract, several quarterbacks who are looking for contract extensions could eclipse that mark next season. 

Stafford's extension kicks in next season, so for now, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco will be the highest paid at the position for the 2017 season.
