Jets QB Aaron Rodgers earned $81.14 through the NFL's performance-based pay system, the lowest amount among all NFL players last season.

The system rewards all NFL players based on their play time and base salary. If a player has a low base salary but plays a significant number of snaps, he earns more through the system.

With Rodgers having the opposite — a high salary and playing just 0.33% of snaps due to his torn Achilles — his total amount came to $81.14.

I think that amount is about right.  What did he do... one play?  one series? I can't remember.  Bob

Considering Rodgers played all of 4 snaps, I am not sure what "performance" was being rewarded  :-??

If I'm remembering correctly, Slayton and Darnay Holmes got healthy bumps from this system.
