Colin Cowherd ($6 000 000)

Colin Cowherd is anything but a coward in the sporting world. The renowned sportscaster earns a cool $6 million for being one of the biggest names in sports talk television, and he’s certainly earned his stripes since starting with ESPN almost twenty years ago. His insights have led him to be approached by other networks, and he’s done shorter stints elsewhere to test the waters. He always seems to gravitate back to the loyal ESPN crowd, however.
