Georgia makes Todd Monken one of nation’s highest-paid assistants

ATHENS, Ga. – Georgia’s Todd Monken now is one of the highest-paid assistant coaches in the nation.

The Bulldogs’ offensive coordinator the two past seasons will make $2 million next season, according to information released by UGA on Thursday afternoon in response to an open-records request for recent salary actions. Though Georgia released the information only Thursday, the school lists the effective date of Monken’s new salary as Jan. 15 of this year.

That represents a $750,000 increase in compensation over last season, when Monken earned $1.25 million as Georgia’s offensive play-caller and quarterbacks coach. He was to make $1.4 million next season, which would have been the third and final year of contract he signed in 2020 when he left the Cleveland Browns to become coach Kirby Smart’s third offensive coordinator.
