Joe Thomas’ Pro Bowl selection increases roster bonus by $1.5 million

Even though his All-Pro streak is over, a couple of weeks ago, we learned that Cleveland Browns LT Joe Thomas was named to his tenth consecutive Pro Bowl. By making the Pro Bowl, Thomas triggered an increase in the roster bonus he is due this year, according to Joel Corry of CBS Sports:

Joe Thomas' Pro Bowl selection triggers an escalator that increases his 2017 5th day of league year roster bonus (3/13) from $1M to $2.5M.

I learned about the roster bonus while compiling numbers for the amount of available cap space the Browns are projected to have.
