Why The Griffin Brothers Won't Go Broke | GQ Sports | First $1 Million

The most recent GQ Sports episode of How I Spent My First $1 Million featured the Griffin brothers of the Seattle Seahawks: Shaquill Griffin and Shaquem Griffin.

Shaquill Griffin played well enough in the 2016 season to earn the 90th overall selection by the Seattle Seahawks. Seattle believed in Shaquill enough to offer him a 4 year contract worth $3.25 million.

Before I hear about what they spent their money on, my money is already invested in these guys. They’re both underdogs. Shaquill was on a UCF team that went winless and he still made it to the league. Shaquem was honored with an appearance in one of Nike’s biggest ads due to him being such a role model. Born with amniotic band syndrome, he became the first player drafted to the NFL with such a condition.

In salary alone, Shaquem has earned nearly $2 million over the three years of being with the Seahawks. Shaquill has earned over $3 million so far. We’re assuming they’re only spending within that 20% of what they’ve earned as they stated they invest 80% of what they earn. 20% of 5 million is $1 million so the numbers work out well.

Thanks again to GQ sports for this excellent series.
