On the other hand, the NFL teams have multiple assistants during each game , they are in charge of everything related to organizing the transportation of uniforms, food, hotels, etc.
One of the small roles within a franchise during a game are the waterboys, they have to hydrate the players during the game and also offer them dry towels.
When does a waterboy get paid during the 2023 Super Bowl 57?
They have an average annual salary of $53,000 which is similar to a college graduate salary which translates to $4,416 per month. Additionally, if the NFL team wins the Super Bowl they could also receive a Super Bowl ring if allowed by the franchise.
Some waterboys dream of becoming head coaches or having a better job with a franchise, one of them managed to not only work as a head coach but also win a Super Bowl, he is Sean McVay with the Los Angeles Rams.
There is a famous movie starring Adam Sandler called The Waterboy where the college waterboy becomes a feared linebacker.
