GREEN BAY, Wis. -- How's this for a New Year's present: Mike Daniels will collect $5 million. David Bakhtiari will get $1.196 million. Mason Crosby will take home $1.05 million.
Those are the three major roster bonuses the Green Bay Packers have to pay out shortly after the 2017 NFL year officially gets underway at 4 p.m. ET.
The Packers often structure veteran contracts with bonus money to paid out in future years.
Daniels and Crosby both have their bonuses due on the third day of the league year, which is Saturday.
