We'll see what Atkins ends up doing by year's end, but I would think he needs to put up 5+ sacks through the last 10 games to justify keeping him beyond this year. Basically, he needs to maintain 0.5 sacks per game average. He was higher than that average in 2015-2018 but he did not average that last year.

He's set to be paid $14.8 mill in 2021 and $16 mill in 2022.
