They're not exactly poor, but when you factor in all their cost, they're not the ballers that the guys who get the endorsement deals and the top tier athletes are.
Be honest, there is nothing "middle class" about their lives. Even the lowliest of checks is a whopping $400,000 plus. That is not middle class.
Closer to $300k actually, which is still a lot. But that's assuming you make the active roster
