What does the Super Bowl MVP winner get? Full details on the Big Game 

The Super Bowl MVP trophy has been won by some of the biggest names in American football history. Tom Brady, Joe Montana, Bart Starr, Terry Bradshaw, and Patrick Mahomes are just a few of the past winners of the illustrious award.

The Super Bowl MVP receives a trophy, as no cash prize is attached to the award. However, winners used to receive a car, but the tradition was discontinued in 2015. That year, Tom Brady gifted Malcolm Butler his Super Bowl MVP car.

How much money do players who lose the Super Bowl get?

It's a long and arduous road to the Super Bowl, with 32 teams competing for two slots in the big game. Hence, many NFL Hall of Famers ended their career without the distinction of winning the big game.

While losing sucks, at least players who lose in the Super Bowl receive a decent amount. According to reports, a Super Bowl loser receives $89,000 for his efforts. It, however, pales compared to the $164,000 each playing member of the Super Bowl-winning franchise receives.

Let's take a look at the payout for each postseason victory and Super Bowl loss in the 2024 postseason:

• Wild-card winner (division champ): $50,500
• Wild-card winner (non-division champ) and teams on first-round bye: $45,500
• Divisional playoff winner: $50,500
• Conference championship winner: $73,000
• Super Bowl winner: $164,000
• Super Bowl loser: $89,000
