5 Highest Paid San Francisco 49ers Players

The San Francisco 49ers have one of the more talented rosters that we have seen from an NFL team in recent memory. They have been the Super Bowl favorites for essentially the entire season, and will have the betting edge against Patrick Mahomes and company during this coming Sunday’s big game.

His $51 million+ in take-home money was the 3rd-most cash earned by any NFL player this season, behind only Lamar Jackson and Patrick Mahomes.

Javon Hargrave – DT: $24.9 million

Hargrave was one of the big off-season additions in 2023, as he joined San Francisco’s defensive line after a Super Bowl run in Philadelphia. He played in all 16 games possible (starters rested Week 18) and qualified for his second Pro Bowl, and solidified the interior defensive line for the 49ers. He had 7 sacks on the year, made 44 combined tackles, and earned just shy of $25…
