Career Salary Game: Sean Lee
A second-round pick by the Dallas Cowboys in the 2010 NFL Draft, linebacker Sean Lee has announced his retirement after 11 NFL seasons.
Lee’s career is marked by a bit of “what might have been”. He missed a total of 58 games, including a missed season in 2014 due to a torn ACL. He was a two-time Pro Bowler and a one-time All Pro, with four 100-plus tackle seasons as the leader of the Cowboys’ defense.
So, how much did Lee make in his career?
According to Spotrac, Lee earned $51,145,578 in his career. Pretty good for the 55th overall pick in 2010 out of Penn State, and a testament to perseverance through injuries to play 11 NFL seasons.
