As for the playoff money...If you went from the WC round to the SB and won you get about $197k...That is a night out or underwear and socks for the year for most of these players...Playoff money is nothing when the snap count I am speaking about could cost him 18 million...It does not matter if he makes the playoffs again...It is guaranteed if he reaches those goals just one time
The cap is calculated on "earned bonuses plus other earned income. So, the good news for the Bengals is the 3 million was in the 2015 cap already, but was not spent so the 3 million can now be rolled over with any other unused cap dollars into 2016 if the Bengals so choose. It stinks for AD, but gives us some more money to use in 2016 which we need to get are keys guys signed. This should help us keep a player or 2 by itself.
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
