Report: Brandon Browner likely to receive a few big bonuses this year

WhoDat!656 · 11-20-2015, 08:47 AM

While Brandon Browner has been one of the most penalized players in the NFL this year, he's still seeing plenty of time on the field.

To top it off, if Browner's amount of playing time stays where it's currently at, Nick Underhill of The New Orleans Advocate reports that he's going to get a pretty hefty payday when 2015 comes to a close.

‏@nick_underhill Browner will receive bonuses of $125K if he finishes at 80%, 85% and 90% of defensive snaps, according to a league source. He's above 90 now

Browner was a big-named addition this offseason for the Saints, so there's no surprise they're using him even if he's struggled at times. It'll be interesting to see how his percentage of snaps played looks at the end of the season.

125k? big deal its that $2,250,000 roster bounces tied up with 5.3 million in dead money in 2016 that makes it all a mute point this year

we have one more to deal with him. 2017 he had a dead dollar amount of 1.3 mill so cutting him in 2017 would add another 5 mill in cap space for 2017.

That's a $125k bonus for each percentage reached of 80%, 85% and 90%. So if he plays 90% of the snaps it would be $375k. Still not a lot in this business, but far more than he has earned, and to think that it's merely a potential bonus for him is pretty sad.

WOW, that is just awful. The way he has played, he should feel guilty taking any type of bonus. Not going to happen, but he should.

If Allen uses him like Browner was used in Seattle then he has a chance to earn that pay check.

I'm not sure he is able at this point to play at that level. Maybe he needs to go back to smoking weed before games. Let him be a little more relaxed.

He is the one getting flagged damn near every pass the other team throws.
