That's possible, but other than a few pizza commercials I don't recall seeing Matt Stafford, for example, all that much.  I feel like you'd have to be pretty popular to get enough opportunity to make money on other stuff in order for it to compare to what you can make playing in the NFL at the top of your position group.  I assume that stuff is just icing on the proverbial cake rather than something players can be expected to factor into their "what can I get right now now now in black and white" contracts.

I also recall the commercial stalwarts like Peyton Manning, Aaron Rodgers and Patrick Mahommes making commercials before and after winning the SB (and Baker Mayfield doing the same minus the SB thing), rather than winning it and it then waiting for advertisers to come calling.
