Eagles signed RT Winston Justice to a four-year, $18.15 million extension. The deal includes a $6 million signing bonus.
It's amazing how far Justice has come from his six-sack embarrassment against Osi Umenyiora in 2007. Despite cries of fear from observers, Justice stepped in for Shawn Andrews at right tackle this season and has vastly exceeded expectations. He was set to enter restricted free agency in 2010, but is now locked in through 2013 and received an immediate $3 million salary bump this year, on top of the signing bonus. Still just 25, Justice will be a bargain for the Birds for the next four seasons. |
