They also add money to the pot to be eligible for the payouts. First fumble recovery gets $250, first interception gets $500, first sack gets $750, etc. This is called "pay for performance" and is against the rules, of course.

Paying for fumble recoveries and interceptions and sacks makes you a cheater in a marginal sense.

Paying for injuries makes you a dick.

That's the difference.
