Commanders TE achieved three contract incentive points at “SNF”.

The Washington Commanders’ celebratory steak dinner might have to be at Zach Ertz’s expense.

In addition to the game-winning and playoff-winning touchdown on “Sunday Night Football,” the veteran tight end scored three separate contract incentive points in the Commanders’ Week 17 win and earned an additional $750,000. Well, that’s a pretty good night.

Ertz’s one-year, $3 million contract with Washington also included incentives that would give the tight ends additional money for reaching certain totals. One incentive was for 60 receptions on the season, another for 600 receiving yards and a final one for six touchdowns. Each was worth $250,000.

Through the entire 60 minutes of regulation, those numbers had dwindled to two more catches, six more yards and one more touchdown. Luckily for the 34-year-old, the game went into extra time.
