Incentives in T.J. Hockenson’s contract revealed

Hockenson will get handsomely rewarded for an impressive season

When the Minnesota Vikings re-signed tight end T.J. Hockenson, there were some questions about whether or not he had incentives in his contract. That question has been answered.

According to the Star Tribune’s Ben Goessling, the incentives are based upon whether or not Hockenson is named an Associated Press All-Pro.

  • If Hockenson is named first-team All-Pro, he gets a $500,000 bonus.
  • If Hockenson is named second-team All-Pro, he gets a $250,000 bonus.

These bonuses are considered not likely to be earned since he has never achieved All-Pro status. If he does, the amount of the bonus will go onto the next season’s salary cap.

The bonuses run from 2023-2027.
