Okafor doesn't earn $400k bonus but Saints pay it anyway
 
Solid by the Saints

New Orleans Saints defensive end Alex Okafor went into his Week 17 game with two goals in mind: leave the day with a win, and get one more sack to trigger a $400,000 bonus in his contract. He ended up being disappointed on both counts, but the Saints did Okafor a solid by buying out the bonus and just cutting him a $400,000 check.*

Good move. Motivation for playoffs. Ward off possible suitors this coming year, and encourage him to stay in spite of Davenport.

Very happy to root for an organization that behaves this way. Definitely sends the right message to current players and those we're hoping to sign in the future.

This organisation has come a long way.

He was rewarded because team was so good. He had limited snaps in a meaningless game. Why risk the injury, pay him instead.

The Eagles should do the same for Foles. Without his play, they wouldn't be in the playoffs.
