Patriots Revise Brady’s Contract, Add $5 Million in Incentives
Saturday, August 11, 2018
Each incentive increases to $2 million if the Patriots win Super Bowl 53, however, the incentives are capped at $5 million.
“So he can get to $5 million two ways. Either hit all five incentives or hit three of them and win the Super Bowl,” said Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated on Twitter.
According to Breer, the five contract incentives are:
- Top 5 in QB Rating
- Top 5 in Completion %
- Top 5 in Yards/Attempt
- Top 5 in TD Passes
- Top 5 in Passing Yards
Entering this season, Brady’s base salary is $14 million with a roster bonus of $1 million. If he achieves the five incentives, his pay for the season would be $20 million.
The $20 million would make Brady the 10th highest paid quarterback in the NFL.
Brady vs Incentives
In 2017 Brady hit all five of those incentives.
He ranked first in pass yards, fifth in yards per attempt, third in touchdowns, fifth in completion percentage and third best in quarterback rating. He was named league MVP.
In 2016, Brady finished 20th in passing yards, second in yards per attempt, seventh in touchdowns, fifth in completion percentage and second in QB rating.
