Who is the highest paid NFL player of all time, per snap played?

Ernie Davis is one. Never played a down but got paid all the same. I’m sure there are others similarly situated.
In my defense, I was left unsupervised.

Per snap played...Gotta have taken some snaps in a regular game.

I think all of the top NFL players are overpaid.

The NFL makes money. Either the players get it, or the owners. (Kinda)

They should just decide enough is enough and give big discounts to McDonalds, Anheiser Busch, and the car companies.

By the metric of dollars per snap, kickers, punters, and backup QBs would be the highest compensated guys on any given team, I suppose. It's a screwy metric.
As a good person, I implore you to do as I, a good person, do. Be good. Do NOT be bad. If you see bad, end bad. End it in yourself, and end it in others. By any means necessary, the good must conquer the bad. Good people know this. Do you know this? Are you good?

The guys on WWL radio say it is Chase Daniel. He's been in the league since 2009, making it as an UFA and has a Super Bowl ring. He took 17 snaps for the Saints in his first four years. The Eagles paid him $12,000,000 for one pass. Other than a few plays (3 plays for the Saints last year) over the years in mop-up duty, Chase has only seen significant playing time in two games for the Chiefs.

He just signed a $10M, two year contract with the Bears.

Not bad for a guy who has 51 career pass attempts.

Has to be frustrating. Always a bridesmaid, never a bride.

Guy had a good college career and was a Heisman candidate. Nobody drafted him, though, maybe because he's short for a QB. Signed as a free agent with Washington, got cut and found a job with the Saints as Drew Brees' back-up. Left to try to find a starting job at KC and only started two games. Went to the Eagles to compete for a job and the Eagles drated Carson Went, so left to be Drew's back-up last year, taking three snaps at the end of the Buffalo game. Now, he's backing up Trubinsky.

The career sounds something like Doug Flutie, except Flutie won the Heisman Trophy and the Davey O'Brien National Quarterback Award in 1984, no Super Bowl but he did win a Grey Cup.

Chase Daniel was 6'0", Flutie 5'10".

He was selected by the USFL's New Jersey Generals (owned by Donald Trump) in the 1985 territorial draft, which took place in January, months before the 1985 NFL Draft.[20] Flutie went through negotiations with Trump and agreed on a deal that would make him the highest paid pro football player and highest paid rookie in any sport with $7 million over 5 years

In the Patriots' regular-season finale against the Miami Dolphins on January 1, 2006, Flutie successfully drop kicked a football for an extra point, something that had not been done in a regular-season NFL game since 1941. It was Flutie's first kick attempt in the NFL, and earned him that week's title of AFC Special Teams Player of the Week.

The Confederate soldier was peculiar in that he was ever ready to fight, but never ready to submit to the routine duty and discipline of the camp or the march. The soldiers were determined to be soldiers after their own notions, and do their duty, for the love of it, as they thought best. Carlton McCarthy
