Steve Spagnuolo has a net worth of more than $9 million. The Chiefs coach previously earned $2 million in 2007 with the Giants and has worked in the NFL for nearly two decades. Last year, Vic Fangio was named the NFL’s highest-paid defensive coordinator. So this year it could be Steve Spagnuolo’s time; after all, he is about to compete in his third Super Bowl with the Chiefs. When Steve joined the Chiefs in 2019, their defense was among the worst in the league. He was accused of fixing the defense of a team that was rated 31st. The Chiefs ended the season with a Super Bowl title.
Spagnuolo is the only defensive coordinator in NFL history to win a Super Bowl with two teams. He got his first win with the Giants. Last year, he played in his sixth Super Bowl and won his third championship. With a win against Brock Purdy’s 49ers on Feb. 11, Spagnuolo could become the first four-time coordinator to win a Super Bowl on both sides of the ball.
Steve Spagnuolo Net Worth and Salary in 2024
Kansas City Chiefs defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo is easily making seven figures. Spagnuolo, a veteran, earned $2 million with the New York Giants in 2008. Spagnuolo began his coaching career in Massachusetts in 1981 and got his first NFL job in 1999 with the Philadelphia Eagles. Spagnuolo became one of the league’s highest-paid relievers after signing a $2 million contract with the Giants in 2008. A year later, after another great season with the Giants, the Rams contacted Steve to become their head coach. The New York Times claimed in January 2009 that Steve had agreed to a four-year, $11.5 million contract with the Rams.
Before joining the Rams, Spagnuolo had an unblemished coaching record. However, his three seasons with the Rams earned him a fake nickname in the media. He finished his career with a 10-38 record and no playoff appearances. He returned to his previous position as defensive coordinator in 2012 and rejoined the Giants in 2015. In 2017, he was named interim head coach, but was unable to take over the head coaching job. Pat Shurmur was signed by the Giants to a five-year, $30 million contract.
He joined the Chiefs in 2019, but the terms of his contract were never disclosed. Vic Fangio will be the highest paid defensive coordinator in 2023 after joining the Miami Dolphins. Fangio signed a three-year, $13.5 million contract with the Dolphins, but the two recently parted ways. So it won’t be a surprise if Steve becomes the league’s next highest-paid defensive coordinator as he leads the Chiefs to their third Super Bowl.
Steve Spagnuolo’s family
Steve Spagnuolo, a veteran NFL coach, is married to Maria Spagnuolo whom he met on a blind date. He was not interested in going out and decided on a blind date only after being persuaded by his friends. Steve and Maria grew up in a pious home and planned to marry in a church in Rome. They got married in 2005, after several years of dating. In an interview, Steve’s mother, Carol, said, “God sent her to be his wife.” The former hairdresser and NFL coach previously did charity work. In an interview in 2020, Steve characterized his wife Maria as the most generous person.
The NFL coach said in his interview that Maria teaches him that money does not transform individuals, but reveals their true nature. Steve said he and Maria aim to serve others in honor of Father God. They do it not only with money, but also with their time and resources. Steve revealed that he and Maria gave their playoff bonus from winning Super Bowl XLII to God. He also said his wife found a juvenile home in the Bronx, New York, to help the children. Although several publications report that the couple has five children, the Chiefs coach has never spoken about them.
