Super Bowl Sunday is finally here, and up and down the country football fans are getting ready for the championship game, half-time show, and of course, some stuntworthy commercials. And whether your favorite team made it to the big game or not, part of the fun of the Super Bowl is debating which players and teams are better than the other.

We all know that the New England Patriot's 2019 Super Bowl win against the Los Angeles Rams cemented Tom Brady as the NFL player with the most Super Bowl rings, but you might not know who comes in second place behind him—here are the players with the most Super Bowl rings.

Brady won all six of his rings as quarterback with the New England Patriots, and he was also the oldest quarterback in NFL history to win a Super Bowl at the age of 41. He won his rings in 2002, 2003, 2005, 2015, 2017, and 2018. Brady has also won four Super Bowl MVP awards and three NFL MVP awards. Brady retired from the NFL in February 2023 (for the second time), leaving an impressive legacy and a high bar for other players to clear.

Haley was the first player to win five Super Bowl rings, and he won them with the San Francisco 49ers and the Dallas Cowboys. He won his first two rings with the 49ers in 1989 and 1990, and after he was traded to the Cowboys, he won three Super Bowls in his first four seasons in Dallas in 1993, 1994, and 1996.

4 rings: a lot of people

NFL players that have won 4 rings include Ted Hendricks, Marv Fleming, Matt Millen, Bill Romanowski, Adam Vinatieri, Joe Montana, Keena Turner, Eric Wright, Mike Wilson, Ronnie Lott, Jesse Sapolu, Terry Bradshaw, Franco Harris, Lynn Swann, John Stallworth, Mel Blount, Jack Ham, Mike Webster, Donnie Shell, L.C.
