Jets Punter ( now former punter again), Steve Weatherford got paid $51,176 to play Sunday in the Jets vs Patriots game. Not bad for one day worth of work.

Weatherford got a late call last week to play in Sunday's game, as the Jets regular punter Ryan Quigley was out with a leg injury.

Weatherford was cut by the Giants before this season and was doing a radio show, when he got the call from the Jets to join the team. Weatherford was sent back into retirement after Sunday's game as it appears Quigley will be back for the Jets vs. Raiders this Sunday

Weatherford signed for the minimum salary worth up to $870,000. Divide that figure by 17 for each week and you get $51,176. Cha-ching!
