Multiple NFL Stars Named Most Overpaid Players Amid High-Value Contracts

Several NFL players have been labeled as most overpaid heading into the 2025 season by analyst Brad Gagnon. The Washington Commanders traded heavily to acquire left tackle Laremy Tunsil, who, despite five Pro Bowls, has raised concerns due to penalties and age-related decline. Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ safety Antoine Winfield Jr., despite a standout 2023 season, has struggled with injuries and inconsistency since signing a record-breaking contract. Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins, while productive, is considered an overpay due to his durability issues and contract size compared to his production. The New England Patriots’ running back Rhamondre Stevenson is seen as overvalued given his limited production and the emergence of rookie TreVeyon Henderson. Finally, Green Bay Packers’ interior lineman Aaron Banks received a large contract despite lacking Pro Bowl recognition and consistent performance, raising doubts about the value of his deal.
