Q. Question about the Pro Bowl. Some players have a clause in their contract if they are selected for the Pro Bowl they get a set amount bonus. How does that work for a guy like Eric Weddle who was 2nd or 3rd alternate?? Does he get his bonus?? Does the money come out of this year’s cap or next year’s cap??
ANSWER: Not all players have Pro Bowl bonuses (technically, an incentive), but if they do, only players initially elected to the Pro Bowl are entitled to receive a Pro Bowl bonus.
