Of course he was told that, as it's nearly the only way to make his 3M contract a 7M contract.Dalton has already said he was brought in to compete for the starting job. Not as a backup
Dalton is being paid 3M incase Dak decides to sit. The only way Dalton gets the 4M in incentives if he helps the Cowboys WIN the Superbowl.
Here is a breakdown of the incentives in Dalton's Dallas deal:
- If Dalton plays in half of the regular-season snaps and helps the Cowboys make the playoffs, he will earn an extra $1 million.
- If he plays in 35% of the regular-season snaps, at least 50% of the playoff snaps and directs the Cowboys to wins in the first round ($500,000), second round ($500,000) and NFC Championship Game ($750,000), he will earn an extra $1.75 million.
- If he wins the Super Bowl, while playing at least half of the snaps and 35% of the snaps in the regular-season, he will earn the final $1.25 million.
- If the Cowboys earn a first-round bye in the playoffs and all of the aforementioned things happen, then he would earn a max of $6.5 million.
