[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 768073"] Now we're getting even deeper in the weeds! As the Captain rightly pointed out in another thread, the game day bonues are "unlikely to be earned" if the player missed games in the prior season. If, for example, Rodgers' contract was rewritten with game day bonuses for 2018, only 7 of the 16 would be "likely to be earned" since he missed 9 games last season. Those nine games worth of bonuses would not count against the 2018 cap, but if he did play all 16 games in 2018 they convert to "earned" at the end of the season and come off the cap for 2019. However, in that example, if Rodgers blew his knee before the season started and spent the entire year on IR, those 7 "likely to be earned" game day bonuses would count against the cap until the end of the season. So, I could have gotten more granular than in the above post. I perhaps should have said I don't believe "likely to be earned" game day bonuses come off the cap immediately but rather at the end of the season if the guy misses games. I await correction on that point if my observation is wrong. I base that observation on not having noticed it ever happening otherwise. [/QUOTE]
