The final week of the NFL season is rife with narratives to utilize for both betting and fantasy football. One of those is trying to figure out what players may be chasing before the season comes to a close — either contract incentives or a particular milestone. We have compiled for you some of the most important items to note.
Of course, teams still in the playoff or seeding hunt won’t be overly concerned with these incentives.
Contract Incentives
1. Rico Dowdle needs 7 scrimmage yards to earn $1 million — Dowdle hits his incentive at 1,350 scrimmage yards. He should complete that fairly easily.
2. Rico Dowdle needs 1 TD to earn $250,000 — Dowdle is at 7 total TDs on the year, and needs 8 to hit the incentive.
3. Nick Chubb needs 94 rushing yards to earn $250,000 — Currently at 506 yards rushing, Chubb would need to reach 600 to earn the incentive. Houston plays a must-win game this weekend.
4. Hollywood Brown needs 102 receiving yards to earn $625,000 — Brown has 523 receiving yards, and needs to get to 625 to trigger an incentive.
5. Hollywood Brown needs 1 TD to earn $750,000 — Brown hits an incentive at 6 total TDs and is currently at 5. He would earn another $1 million if he could score twice on Sunday.
