Friday Night Lights: Coach Taylor's Greatest Moments

Friday Night Lights had a complicated run over its five seasons, and while it’s stilted seasons and change in networks interfered with as many fans as it could have had, the amazing cast and script reeled in a very loyal fanbase anyway. From new young actors to seasoned veterans, the show included a wide array of actors and actresses all at different stages in their careers. While some have been mostly absent from our screens since the show last aired in 2011, others have gone to bigger things and adding more numbers to their bank account. Being a star of Friday Night Lights was a great push into the spotlight as it was very well received and deemed a critical success even though it may have struggled at first and probably offered a pretty good paycheque for its stars. Check out how much the cast is worth now!

10. Aimee Teegarden

Estimated Net Worth: $3 Million. Aimee Teegarden was without a doubt the most hated character on Friday Night Lights as Julie Taylor, the daughter of the amazing Coach Eric and Tami Taylor. Teegarden began acting with small roles in shows like Hannah Montana, CSI, and 90210 before landing her role as Julie.

8. Michael B. Jordan

Estimated Net Worth: $1 Million. Michael B. Jordan was well on his way to establishing his acting credibility before he landed the role of Vince Howard on Friday Night Lights. He appeared in recurring roles on The Wire, All My Children and The Assistants as well as several single episode appearances in many other big name shows between 1999-2009, but it was Friday Night Lights that boosted his popularity. Following the show he was in another Jason Katims created show Parenthood, and was in movies like Chronicle, Fruitvale Station and That Awkward Moment. While he is estimated to be worth $1 million that number is bound to be a bit bigger nowadays as he was in the 2015 remake of the Fantastic Four, which was a box office bomb, but probably held a pretty profitable contract for the actors. He is also starring in the Rocky spin-off film Creed, which is bound to carry a respectable paycheque.
