Revealed: The surprisingly low amount each Eagles player will get as a bonus after winning the Super Bowl. DO YOU THINK IT’S FAIR? 👇

If the Lombardi Trophy and bragging rights weren’t reward enough for winning the Super Bowl, the stars of the Philadelphia Eagles are also set to pocket a cash bonus.
The Eagles are still soaring high in the aftermath of their 40-22 demolition of the Kansas City Chiefs in Super Bowl LIX down in New Orleans on Sunday.
But the extra check they’re set to cash for crushing their rivals’ three-peat hopes is surprisingly low for freshly-crowned Super Bowl champions.
Per the NFL’s 2020 Collective Bargaining Agreement, each member of the Super Bowl-winning team receives a $171,000 bonus, Adam Schefter reported Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Chiefs stars, including Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes, take home an extra $96,000 just for making it to the big game.
While the figure for hoisting the Lombardi Trophy seems relatively low – compared to the multi-million contracts of NFL players, anyway – it is an increase on the last two years.
In 2023, when these two teams last met on the NFL’s biggest stage, the victorious Chiefs took home an extra $157,000 and the Eagles were handed $82,000 for their defeat.
This year’s winning bonus is also a $7,000 increase over the per-player amount the Kansas City Chiefs received last year when they defeated the San Francisco 49ers.
The bonuses also come on top of the $77,000 both teams’ players already received for winning their respective conferences.
Meanwhile, some Eagles stars have banked far more than their $171,000 Super Bowl prize. Saquon Barkley, for example, took his total to $1.5 million thanks to his role in the humiliation of the Chiefs.
The running back, who capped a historic season that saw him snap former Broncos star Terrell Davis’ single-season record of 2,476 rushing yards, pocketed an extra $250,000 for helping Philadelphia to its second Super Bowl victory thanks to his unique contract structure.
That’s on top of the $250,000 he already earned for reaching the Super Bowl, while his All-Pro first team selection earned him another $1 million in bonus money and salary escalation.
