Nick Fairley made himself a little bit of money on Sunday.
The defensive tackle triggered an incentive in his contract that will pay him a $250,000 bonus for reaching four sacks this season.
He now actually has a 4 ½, which leads the team, and can another $250,000 for reaching 5 ½ sacks. He has another incentive that will pay him another bonus if he reaches seven sacks.
Fairley can also earn up to $750,000 in bonuses if he plays 65 percent or more of the defensive snaps. He’s played 68.4 of the snaps so far this season. That bonus is structured similarly to his sack payouts, with bonuses of $250,000 at 45, 55 and 65 percent of the snaps.
