The Chiefs tight end, who, along with Patrick Mahomes, has been at the heart of the team’s success over the last several years, is set to make $14 million this year based on the four-year deal he signed with the reigning Super Bowl champs.
It’s been reported that the TE has been paid $20 million for Pfizer commercials, $6 million more than what he’s making as an NFL player in 2023.

Kelce’s decision to promote said vaccine has been the cause of some controversy. He was the subject of a cheeky dig from Aaron Rodgers, who referred to him as “Mr. Pfizer” while speaking on ‘The Pat Mcafee Show’ earlier this year.
Kelce typically makes ~$5M a year from endorsements (on top of his $14M salary)…
Some of them include:
• Nike
• Tide
• T-Mobile
• Old Spice
• Walgreens
• McDonald's
• Papa John’s
• Sleep Number
• Dick’s Sporting GoodsIt's reported Pfizer paid him $20M this year. pic.twitter.com/Z4ASDI0TJa

Well, he’s making $20 million. At least according to the claims. So there’s your reason.
