Tackle Marshall Newhouse, one of the more underpaid Green Bay Packers in 2012, found himself $214,335 richer this week.
Newhouse, who played all 1,103 regular-season snaps at left tackle, was awarded that team-leading amount as part of the NFL's performance-based pay benefit program.
PBP was implemented by the league and the players union as part of the 2002 extension to the collective bargaining agreement. It was suspended for the 2010 and '11 seasons because of the expiration of the CBA and subsequent lockout.

Eleven other Packers besides Newhouse received benefits in six figures, including S Jerron McMillian ($173,867), LB Dezman Moses ($173,735), S M.D. Jennings ($172,570), S Morgan Burnett ($160,706), LB Erik Walden ($152,882), CB Casey Hayward ($143,709), LB Brad Jones ($136,757), CB Sam Shields ($131,945), T Don Barclay ($119,914), WR Randall Cobb ($110,430) and TE Ryan Taylor ($109,511).
By far the club's smallest check was for $446 and went to LB Vic So'oto, whose contribution from scrimmage consisted of two snaps at Detroit on Nov. 18.

PBP should be a large part of every contract... you earn it you get it.

I didn't know turnstile operators got that kind of incentive. They should have docked Newhouse' pay. WTF!!!

This is why Hawk is still around. With all our injuries, we place a premium on and overpay healthy players.
