Patriots guard Mike Onwenu among NFL’s top earners in performance-based pay for 2022

Mike Onwenu earned a base salary of $895,000 last regular season with the New England Patriots, but his play has led to nearly double that in the form of supplemental compensation.

The NFL announced its performance-based pay distributions on Friday, and the starting right guard out of Michigan is set to receive an additional $813,083 from 2022.

That figure ranked fourth around the league. It did behind Jacksonville Jaguars center Luke Fortner’s $819,686, Cincinnati Bengals guard Cordell Volson’s $854,407, as well as past Philadelphia Eagles and present Las Vegas Raiders safety Marcus Epps’ $880,384.
