Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 (edited) 'SKINS, MOSS REACH DEAL The Redskins have reached an agreement on a contract extension with receiver Santana Moss, according to a league source. Per the source, Moss will sign on Thursday a six-year extension, voidable to five based upon the achievement of minimum playing time (i.e., 30 percent) in any season from 2006 through 2010. Under the contract, Moss will receive bonuses (signing, roster, and option) over the first two years in the amount of $11 million. We're getting mixed information, however, as to the total amount of new money. One source says that the deal carries $26.55 million in new money for the five years beyond Moss' prior deal for 2005. Another source says that the deal has only $25 million in new money, making it comparable to the contract signed in 2004 by Panthers receiver Steve Smith. Moss, who was traded to the Redskins from the Jets for Laveraneus Coles in March, had been staying away from the Washington's involuntary voluntary workouts due to his unresolved contractual status. This is reported by Profootball Talk.com. I guess it's true. Hopefully this guy can do something cause everybody knows we need it. Looks like skins are the first to cave in to Rosenhaus. But S.Moss did only have 1 year left on his contract. So it's not as bad as Jevon Walker or TO pulling their crap I guess. Edited May 4, 2005 by WhereAreMyRedShoes!

NAUgrad Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 He's not worth the money. But Washington put themselves in this situation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This seems like another step toward salary-cap hell for the Skins. But as a Cowboys fan I say, STEP ON IN! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
