Tampa Bay Buccaneers rework Ndamukong Suh deal, allowing star DT to reach up to $1M in incentives, source says

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers reworked Ndamukong Suh's contract before the regular-season finale, paving the way for the star defensive lineman to make up to $1 million in incentives, a league source told ESPN.

Suh's one-year deal with the Bucs for the 2021 season includes up to $1 million in incentives tied to playing time and team-related qualifiers and success. The five-time Pro Bowler will make $200,000 for each postseason victory that he is on Tampa Bay's roster.

But in order to be eligible for those postseason earnings, Suh first needed to meet multiple regular-season conditions included in the contract incentive.
