Net Worth $3.5 Million493428_display_image

Brian Bosworth, a former professional football player and actor has a net worth of $3.5 Million. Although his main career is slated as a “Professional Football Player”, he only played 2 seasons and many describe as one of the biggest draft busts in history. In 1987, after a fantastic college career in Oklahoma, he signed with the Seattle Seahawks with a very hefty 10 year, $11 million contract. Only problem is, he only played 2 seasons, where he pretty much failed to impress anyone. But he did manage to do some smart moves off the field. An interesting story is when Bosworth openly talked trash the Denver quarterback John Elway. 10,000 Denver fans wore $15 t-shirts that read, “BAN THE BOZ.” Only thing was that those T-shirts were manufactured by Bosworth’s company So he certainly got the last laugh. But the Seahawks weren’t laughing and they essentially forced him into retirement after only a couple seasons. Since then he has been doing what any out of work athlete does.. Playing woefully ironic characters in movies.
