How a Colts' defender can earn a contract bonus in Week 18

Indianapolis Colts' defensive end Tyquan Lewis is chasing a contract bonus in Week 18.

According to Over the Cap, baked into Lewis' contract with the Colts is a sack incentive. If Lewis were to record five sacks for the 2025 season, he would earn an additional $150,000.

Lewis will enter Sunday's game at three sacks, so he's in need of two more.

Along with Lewis' three sacks, he's logged 16 pressures this season and six tackles, according to Pro Football Focus.

Defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo does move Lewis around, which includes lining him up inside.

Lewis has appeared in just 12 games this season, missing time with injuries.

The Colts' Week 18 opponent is the Houston Texans. The Houston offense ranks 12th in pressure rate and 12th in sacks allowed.

The 2025 season is the final year of Lewis' current deal. He has a base salary of $3.28 million and a cap hit of $7.14 million.
