Question
I was wondering if referees got paid bonus checks from their conferences based on the success of the teams in bowl games?

IE. If Utah makes it to a BCS bowl, will the MWC refs get a bonus or anything similar.

Thanks,

Scott

Answer
Scott, hello!



The NFL referee salary (National Football League) ranges from USD 25,000 to USD 70,000 per season i.e. a season with 16 games with one-week intervals. The NFL official’s average annual income of USD 27, 000 is lowest when compared to the NBA officials earn about USD 128,000 per annum, the NHL officials earn USD139, 000 per annum and the major-league baseball officials earn about USD 141, 000 per annum. On the other hand, NFL officials are not full-time employees and work lesser as against the other sports.
