With just one game remaining of the 2024 NFL regular season, multiple players will only have one last chance at reaching contract incentives.
And two Indianapolis Colts players look primed for a bonus check.
Getting to the QB will be key to getting to the postseason.

Minshew doesn't have to do anything to earn his bonus. He has an incentive written into his contract where he gets an extra two million dollars if he plays 65% of the snaps on the year. Entering Week 18, he has already played 86% of the Colts offensive snaps this season. This means he just needs to sit pretty and wait for Week 18 to end, and he will be two million dollars richer. Imagine the type of improvements he can make to his notorious off-season van with that kind of money.
Colts rotational edge rusher Tyquan Lewis has been able to put together a healthy season for the first time in three years. Heading into Week 18, he has tied his career high with 4.0 sacks. He is one sack away from reaching 5.0 sacks, which would earn him a hundred and fifty thousand dollars as a bonus incentive in his contract. It would set a new career high in sacks for Lewis in a contract year and reward him with $150,000.
