Aaron Rodgers- California
Aaron Rodgers football career began in California. He was a college football in the state and gained popularity rather quickly. In 2005, the NFL drafted him and he joined the Green Bay Packers. He first took residence in Green Bay to be near his team, but it seems that he may have missed his hometown, or at the very least, his home state. Thus, he chose to move back. His abode? A not-so-humble mansion that has its own pool – the Olympic-size kind.
Peyton Manning- Denver
Peyton Manning’s name was once something that struck fear in the hearts of competing teams. A legend in his own right, the former quarterback was a star player for teams such as the Indianapolis Colts and the Denver Broncos, both of whom have taken home NFL championships. Thus, it is but natural that he would choose the best of everything, even in retirement. His property in Chevy Village has an estimated worth of $4.5 million. It is quite massive at just under 16,500 square feet – enough space for kids to do what they do. It also comes with seven bedrooms, because you know…why not? Impressive, hey?
Randy Moss – New England Patriots
Randy Moss, the legendary NFL star, very recently placed his home in Lincoln, Rhode Island on the market. The six-time Pro Bowler is the owner of a home with a modern style. It measures 3,846 square feet and is on land which is 4 acres in size. The mansion, which includes three baths as well as three bedrooms, has wooden yet trendy floors and walls. This property is definitely not lacking in the size department.
Tony Romo – Dallas
Tony Romo, Dallas Cowboys’ former quarterback, only played for a single team in his whole career of 14 years. In actual fact, this isn’t common for the NFL since teams usually trade players around. However, Romo’s mansion which is estimated to be worth nine massive ones might clue you in on why he was ‘loyal’ to one team and yes, you read it right. His house is definitely not cheap. It has six bedrooms, an awesome entertainment center, and a massive outdoor area – something the whole neighborhood can enjoy when the occasion arises. Impressed? Who isn’t?
Rob Gronkowski – Boston
The lifestyles NFL players lead may irk some because of how luxurious they can be, but it is undeniable that the work these players do can be quite demanding and may require a lot from them. Just like other players, Rob is a hard worker on the field. He also leads a rather extravagant lifestyle. The mansion he owns can be found in Boston’s Seaport District and measures a massive 2,063 square feet. It includes a roof deck which is not only private but has a fantastic view. We don’t know about you but this certainly seals the deal for us, and quite possibly Rob too.
Kurt Warner – Scottsdale
Arizona Cardinal’s former quarterback Kurt Warner enjoys hanging out and relaxing in his ginormous home. It is 11,000 square feet and is located in Scottsdale, Arizona. There are seven bedrooms in the house and it also has ten bathrooms, a media room, a home theatre, and a cabana. Luxury at its finest! Even if we are not experts on football, we are quite sure that if he is not working, he is probably lounging about in his extravagant home. Who wouldn’t? If this hasn’t impressed you, then read on to find out more mind-blowing mansions on our list.
Russell Wilson – Bellevue
If you aren’t aware that this property is a house, you will probably think it’s a fancy hotel. The owners of this mansion are Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson and his wife, R&B singer Ciara. The pair live here together with their daughter and two pet dogs. There is no reason for them to run out of space, though. It’s because the property measures 10,700 square feet. With Russell and Ciara’s combined earnings, purchasing this property most likely didn’t even make a dent in their pockets. Blew your mind away? Stick around for more mansions that may be just as, if not more, amazing.
Robert Griffin III – Aldie
If we are making a list of things luxury homes should have, we can definitely get inspiration from Robert’s not-so-modest house. Robert bought this property that is 9,000 square feet in size, and we certainly approve, especially due to the fantastic features it has. It includes four bathrooms as well as five bedrooms. It also has an entertainment room, a spa, a mudroom, a wine cellar, and an indoor elevator. There is also a golf course in this property. However, former quarterback Robert Griffin III is not playing at present. This may have been one of the reasons why he was forced to sell the property. Thus, if you are looking to own a luxury home, you already know who to call.
Marshawn Lynch – Richmond
Marshawn Lynch seems to be a guy after our own property hearts. A waterfront property is always a winner in our books. Lynch made sure not to pass up the chance of owning such a prize, so he went out and bought his own. The said property is 7000 square feet in size, still definitely bigger than my home multiplied four times. What makes this mansion amazing is the view of San Francisco Bay that Lynch awakens to every morning. He is also the owner of a dock for boats which is massive at 58 feet. To whom do we exchange our souls for a home like this?
Matt Forte – Chicago
Visit the neighbourhood of River North, Chicago. There you will have the chance to see the beautiful home of Matt Forte, the New York Jets’ running back. Spreading over 9000 square feet, the house has four levels with five bedrooms, six bathrooms, and an indoor elevator. Talk about massive, right? Wrong. He plans to step it up by expanding the house by over 1,137 square feet! Yes, legal documents for zoning change are being submitted as of this moment.
Von Miller – Cherry Hills Village
If you own over 800 pairs of footwear and more than 150 pairs of glasses, it is safe to presume that a HUGE amount of space is needed to contain all of your personal belongings. It is for this reason that Von Miller owns a remarkable mansion located in Cherry Hills Village, Colorado. We are pretty sure that one of the seven bedrooms in the house is used solely for housing all his shoes. Way to go, Miller! It’s the dream shared by all shoe lovers’ out there.
Ryan Tannehill – Fort Lauderdale

This property in Atlanta is enormous at 8,000 square feet and has everything a luxurious home should have. With heated floors, seven bathrooms, a pool, a pond, and its very own tennis court, this mansion leaves nothing to be desired. Julio got an absolute bargain with this one.
Julius Peppers – Miami
Since Julius has made the move to play for the Carolina Panthers after being with the Green Bay Packers, we are pretty sure he will be in the market once again for a new house. Until then though, his current Miami mansion will have to suffice. The home, which measures 9,100 square feet in size, has a Dutch-Caribbean style and includes eight bathrooms as well as eight bedrooms. It also has a chef’s and summer kitchen, a library, a wine cellar, and an infinity pool. Whatever it costs, we want it.
Ladainian Tomlinson – California
Although a lot of people all around the globe can only dream about owning a Californian home, the former running back of the San Diego Charger actually owns one in real life. His property is 9,600 square feet in size and practically has everything anyone might want to have in their home such as a huge pool, basketball court, golf course, movie theatre, and wall-sized fish tank, which by the way is our personal favorite. It also has six bedrooms, not to mention five bathrooms. It’s safe to say he is enjoying retirement right now.

This mansion in Illinois is such a dream. Even if Jay Cutler and family are just renting this five-bedroom house, it’s quite an impressive rental. Don’t you agree?
Antonio Brown – Hollywood
Well, this property would be one of the top ones on the list of best mansions. If you looked up the meaning of the word mansion in the dictionary, we’re sure there would be a reference to Antonio Brown’s lovely, but certainly not small-scale home. It is located in Hollywood Oaks and impressively boasts of twelve bedrooms, ten baths, an outdoor kitchen, an office, a home cinema, a media room, a gym, two pools and a guest house.

This home in Santaluz development located north of San Diego is Philip’s very own luxury home where he can kick his feet up whenever he wants. This massive home seems to be just the start for the NFL star since he recently acquired another property.
Jerry Rice – California
Well, we promised to give you bigger mansions and our guy Jerry Rice certainly delivers! The New York Giants legend played it smart and invested in many properties in different places while he was still active in the NFL. However, his Los Angeles estate is what he calls home. Measuring 15,600 square feet, it includes nine bedrooms with just as many bathrooms, a formal dining room, chef’s kitchen, butler’s pantry and swimming pool. Retirement has never looked this good!
Elvis Dumervil – Florida
Elvis and this Florida home have been surrounded by bankruptcy rumors probably because no one seems to know his actual living arrangements. However, we are hoping that these rumors do not hold true. It appears he has sold this 7,900 square foot home in Florida to a lucky buyer. Lucky because the mansion boasts of seven bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a gaming room, a home cinema, and a resort-style pool complete with a wet bar. We certainly hope Elvis got the price that he wanted because this home looks very much like a dream!
Keyshawn Johnson – California

This home in Calabasas boasts 11,746 square feet. It has nine baths as well as six bedrooms and a sunken basketball court!
Patrick Wills – San Jose
Well Patrick did not go for the same number of bedrooms that some NFL players did, but he definitely spent just as much cash for his home as the others did on theirs, if not more.

It is massive at 1.75 acres and has all that you need and more to have a comfortable daily life. It boasts three fireplaces and a media room as well as six bedrooms and eight baths. However, it might come as a shock to you that a few years back, Troy sold this house because he got bored.
Adrian Peterson – Woodlands, Texas
Who doesn’t love an all-rounder? We know we do and Adrian Peterson is certainly one! The running back of the New Orleans Saints purchased this ginormous home and spent more than $5 million on it. He got himself ten bathrooms as well as six bedrooms, a walk-in cellar and a gaming room. And that’s not all. The house has its very own two-story library, which certainly says a lot about Adrian’s love for his books.
Jason Taylor – Florida
It looks as if not all properties are a great investment. Some can be a dud as what Jason Taylor found out. This 10,247 square foot mansion was purchased for around $3.6 million dollars by the NFL star. He initially wanted to settle down in this property, but he quickly changed his mind.

His home has wonderful wooden floors and three baths as well as three bedrooms. The rooftop pool is an added bonus as well.
