More than a dozen NFL players have some pretty significant contract bonuses hanging in the balance over the last two weeks of the regular season and into the playoffs.

ESPN’s Michael Rothstein detailed the contract bonuses tied to the 2023-24 deals of several players, including Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott, Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen and Tennessee Titans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.

Here’s a deeper look at those bonuses broken down by player.

Dallas Cowboys QB Dak Prescott

Prescott will earn $1 million if the Cowboys reach the Super Bowl and another $1 million if he plays at least 50 percent of the snaps in the championship game.

The Cowboys are currently second in the NFC East with a 10-5 record and have already locked up a playoff spot. They have a seven percent chance to make the Super Bowl.

Buffalo Bills QB Josh Allen

Allen has the opportunity to earn some pretty significant bonuses this year.

The Bills signal-caller will earn $1.5 million if he wins the MVP award and another $1 million if the Bills win the AFC Championship game and he plays at least 60 percent of offensive snaps in that matchup.

Allen will earn an additional $2.5 million if the Bills win the Super Bowl and he plays 60 percent of the snaps.

Despite the numerous turnovers, Allen is firmly in the MVP conversation after leading the Bills to a 9-6 record, including wins over the Cowboys and Kansas City Chiefs.

Buffalo has a seven percent chance to make the Super Bowl.

Cleveland Browns QB Joe Flacco

In addition to earning $75,000 for each win, Cleveland Browns quarterback Joe Flacco will earn $250,000 if the team wins a wild-card game the signal-caller plays in and would earn another $500,000 for playing in a divisional victory.

If the Browns win the AFC title game and Flacco plays, he would earn another $1 million and if he starts a Super Bowl victory, he would earn another $2 million.
