The Facts:
Winslow was supposed to receive $2 million Friday, but the team declined to pay it. The $2 million bonus was tied to Winslow being on the active roster. Some experts think that the Browns could ask Winslow to give back up to $5 million, but that would probably lead to a long legal dispute.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
In case you've been hibernating, Winslow is out for this season with a torn ACL suffered in a motorcycle accident. The Browns already have paid him about $6 million and Winslow is due bonuses of $950,000 in December and $2.4 million next July. His reaction to losing this bonus, his diligence in rehabbing and how close he remains to the team during that reha will all reportedly help determine whether he receives those payouts.
