Expand Yes and no: bonuses fall within two categories. 1) Likely to be achieved 2) Unlikely to be achieved Bonuses that are deemed likely to be achieved are baked within this years cap, where as those deemed unlikely are paid out and count against next years cap if they are achieved. I have to imagine you’re right though and these three bonuses would be considered unlinkely to be met and fall against next years cap. Worth it!

For the London game they would have to pay UK taxes, but I'm not sure if it's regularly taxed income or if they also have a jock tax as well. I know players like to get their salary in the form of an up front bonus and will have their primary residence in a 0 tax state when they receive that bonus so they can skip the state taxes (have to pay federal regardless). 1 Quote

Expand Playoff incentive bonuses are treated like NLTBE and paid after the playoffs. They then are calculated into the following years cap using the Adjustment clause. At the end of the season all LTBE and NLTBE bonuses are added and subtracted to whatever rollover is left. Which means if a player has a LTBE bonus (which is part of the season cap hit) and doesn't earn it, the extra money if rolled over. Opposite if an NLTBE bonus is earned. Spotrac shows the + or - Adjustment ever year. At the start of this year the Bills had $856k added to their cap. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/cap/ 2 Quote
