Seattle Seahawks running back Eddie Lacy is a cool $55,000 richer after weighing in at 253 pounds Monday, according to his sports agency.

Lacy, who's battled weight issues throughout his career, has a clause in his deal that will pay him up to $385,000 in seven increments of $55,000, provided he doesn't crack 255 pounds.

Lacy reportedly played above 260 pounds with the Green Bay Packers, despite the team officially listing his weight at 234 pounds.

Now, with $55,000 more in his pocket, Lacy faces a conundrum: does he go out to celebrate with a meal?
