It could be something as easy as listing it as a bonus for practices practiced or games played.

Or is it over a million for the entire year and not just individual paychecks?

What does it matter?  If you owe 37 % on your total income at the end of the year and have not paid in that amount then you will owe the man.  Have you never filed taxes?
