What a night for Jacksonville Jaguars defensive lineman Sen’Derrick Marks. His team got a come from behind win over the Tennessee Titans, 21-13, to get their third win of the season.
Marks wrestled down Charlie Whitehurst for this game winning sack–his eighth on the season. With the play, Marks also triggered a $600K performance bonus.

According to Vito Stellino of the Florida Times-Union, Marks had an incentive clause put in his contract last December which would pay him $600,000 if he collected 8.0 sacks. Since he had fewer than that (7.0) in his first five seasons, it seemed a reasonable inclusion.
The bonus represents 20% of Marks salary this season.
