However, Snoop's coverage hasn't come without a hefty price tag for NBC, as they have reportedly offered him an eye-watering salary. According to the Sporting News , New York -based venture capitalist Henry L.
McNamara shared on social media that he overheard Snoop's daily Olympic salary from an NBC exec at dinner. The 52-year-old is allegedly earning $500,000 a day, according to McNamara, which could exceed $8.5 million by the end of this year's Paris games.
NBC has yet to confirm this figure but for reference, the network's lead Olympic host and Sunday Night Football commentator Mike Tirico's yearly salary was around $10.5 million in 2022. So, Snoop's net worth of $160 million, according to Celebrity Net Worth , could be majorly boosted.
