(12-23-2022, 07:04 AM)The Real Marty Wrote: The NFL is national, endorsements are national.  Josh Allen is doing a shaving commercial, and he's playing in Buffalo.  Mahomes does the State Farm commercials, and he's in Kansas City.  Aaron Rodgers also does State Farm commercials, and he's in Green Bay.  Etc etc etc.  Endorsement money has nothing to do with where you are playing.  Trevor will get more endorsement money than Zach Wilson, because he's a superstar, and Wilson is a bust. 

And to those who say New York is overrated, I disagree.  New York City is fantastic.  I love it.

There are local endorsements.  Car dealerships and such.  Smaller time players can make a bit of coin that way.  I remember Akin Ayodele's car battery commercial on the radio.  Do you?

Besides it's not a coincidence that Michael Strahan is now a TV host and Victor Cruz is doing BMW commercials. Show biz money can keep rolling in if people still remember your name and face, and if you're not a QB, the best way to get them to remember your name and face is to play in a big market.
