The NFL playoffs begin this weekend with twelve teams competing. The postseason generates significant revenue from ticket sales, parking, and concessions, benefiting both teams and players.

Despite the playoff pay seeming low, players receive about half of the NFL's total revenue, which includes substantial income from TV deals.
