As the NFL heads into the final two weeks of the regular season, there is more at stake for some players than just the playoffs.
Several stars in the league have just two or fewer matches left to complete the requirements needed to unlock some big bonuses from their teams.
It was reported that Joe Flacco will pocket an extra $250,000 with a Wild Card round win for the Browns, doubling his incentives for each subsequent round, and after Cleveland clinched its playoff spot on Monday Night Football, the quarterback was inching closer with that extra payday.
The 38-year-old will also pocket an additional $75,000 for every regular season game he wins for the rest of the year, and with only one game left in their season (against the Bengals on January 7) there is one bonus left for Flacco .
But he's not the only one with money on the line in the final two weeks of the NFL season ESPN.

Ravens edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney is just half a sack away from an extra $750,000
Baltimore Ravens edge rusher Jadeveon Clowney is just half a bag away from an extra $750,000.
With 8.5 sacks this season, Clowney has already earned $1 million, but if he can get that extra half and bring his total to nine, that will increase to $1.75 million.
Meanwhile, Buccaneers' linebacker Lavonte David appears poised to take home $2.5 million after improving defensively from last season, with three more interceptions than last year.
David has currently played 83.8 percent of snaps and if he continues to play over 65 percent by the end of the season and the Bucs are in the top 10 in points allowed, he will add another $200,000 to his bank account. Tampa is currently number 11 with 302.
Like Clowney, he also only needs half a bag to make some extra money, as he needs five for $150,000 and is currently at 4.5.
Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon needs one more touchdown to reach 10 for the season and a $250,000 bonus. If he can get his total even further to 12, that figure will rise to $350,000.

Some players have already met their requirements and are laughing all the way to the bank.
Dolphins' Raheem Mostert has already surpassed his 900 scrimmage yards mark and is earning $1 million, while Vikings defensive end Danielle Hunter has earned $3 million with 15.5 sacks for surpassing his goal of 14.
