A player will get cut because he is making too much money one season compared to the year before - unless he is worth that money. Kendrell Bell was asked to restructure his contract this year or the year before because he's basically a waste of skin.
He was also denied a $10 million roster bonus (money awarded for being on the roster at a certain date), because he sucked ass basically. That's just one of many incentives that might be built into a contract. The Chiefs may have put incentives in Trent Green's contract like "throw X number of touchdown passes and get paid this much."

I don't get how you can make more one year compared to another. Not counting bonuses and such. Or are the bonuses what make the figure different each year. And, if that's the case, then how can you make more one year from the next if you're doing less?
