As the Miami Dolphins prepare for their Week 18 matchup against the New York Jets, several players are on the cusp of earning significant performance-based bonuses. Linebacker Tyrel Dodson stands to gain $300,000 if he records at least one sack during the game. Similarly, defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah can secure a $500,000 bonus by achieving 1.5 sacks. Additionally, defensive end Calais Campbell is one sack away from earning a $300,000 incentive.
These performance incentives are common in NFL contracts, motivating players to reach specific statistical milestones. For Dodson, Ogbah, and Campbell, the upcoming game presents an opportunity to enhance both their season statistics and their earnings.
The Dolphins’ defense has been instrumental in the team’s performance this season, with notable contributions from players like defensive tackle Zach Sieler, who has registered 8.5 sacks, trailing only Dexter Lawrence of the New York Giants among defensive tackles. As the team faces the Jets, the defense will aim to maintain its momentum, with individual players striving to achieve their personal goals and incentives.
