Wide receiver Kadarius Toney #19 of the Kansas City Chiefs warms up

Kansas City Chiefs Super Bowl hero Kadarius Toney has an estimated net worth of $1.5 million. The versatile offensive threat was drafted into the National Football League (NFL) in 2021 by the New York Giants in the first round.

Thomas was drafted out of Florida State University, where he earned a reputation for being a do-it-all player. He is adept at receiving and rushing the ball, which was one reason he was selected as the 20th overall pick in the NFL Draft.

Toney's first season in the NFL was a productive albeit inconsistent one. He was great in the games he played but missed a staggering seven games as a professional ball player.

However, his performances were good enough to show analysts that he could be part of a solid future for the Giants. That happened before he was traded to the Chiefs before the 2022 NFL season. But looking back, the move to Kansas was a blessing in disguise, as the second-year Pro is a newly minted Super Bowl champ.


Kadarius Toney's contract breakdown

Kadarius Toney signed a four-year rookie contract worth $13,719,508 with the Giants. This is the standard contract for a late first-round wide receiver, and it ticks the industry box. His contract included a signing bonus of $7,337,824 and comes in at an average of $3,429,877 per season.

Furthermore, $13,719,508 of Toney's contract was guaranteed upon signing, thus giving the Florida State University alum a touch of stability in his young NFL career.

Toney is earning a fee in line with his draft position, and his contract is currently in the hands of the Chiefs. The Chiefs absolved his contract when they traded for him before the 2022 season, and so far, he is representing great value for money. Toney is the fourteenth-best-paid player on the Chiefs roster.


How did Kadarius Toney perform in Super Bowl LVII?

Kadarius Toney performed a masterful Super Bowl LVII performance, proving to the Chiefs that he is a more than decent replacement for Tyreek Hill. Toney was in his bag as he was a threat as a kick returner, and he even pulled down an impressive receiving touchdown.

It's hard to imagine that Toney would prevail during clutch moments in the biggest game of his young NFL career, as he only played in seven regular-season games in 2022.

Toney didn't let the critics get in his head as he helped the Chiefs to their second Super Bowl title in four years. Moreover, his astonishing punt set a record for the longest punt return in Super Bowl history.

Toney's record broke Jordan Norwood's long-standing record of 61-yard set in Super Bowl L. His 65-yard punt return was phenomenal under the bright lights of the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.

Toney's punt return proved to be a turning point in the game as the Chiefs beat the Philadelphia Eagles 38-35 in a closely-contested Super Bowl LVII matchup.
