Tomlinson Agrees To Restructured Contract

Posted on March 11, 2009 by No Comments

The San Diego Chargers agreed to a restructured contract with pro-bowl running back LaDainain Tomlinson that will keep him in a Chargers uniform for at least the next three years.

The terms of the deal are not known at this time, however it is believed that Tomlinson will restructure his 2010 and 2011 salaries to reduce the Chargers’ cap hit and will likely be made up with performance incentives.  Tomlinson’s salary of $6.75 million for 2009 will likely remain the same.

The St Louis Rams released tackle Orlando Pace but signed fullback Mike Karney to a three year contract who spent the last five seasons with the New Orleans Saints to be a lead blocker for Steven Jackson.

The Pittsburgh Steelers re-signed tackle Willie Colon to a one year deal worth just over $2 million.

The San Diego Chargers signed linebacker Kevin Burnett, formerly of the Cowboys, to a two year deal.  Burnett provides depth at the linebacker position as well as some special teams ability to the Bolts.

The Eagles added another saftey to help fill the void left by Brian Dawkins, signing Rashad Baker, formerly of the Oakland Raiders, to a one year deal.
