So much for Friday nights being slow.
As the Broncos chase Peyton Manning and the Redskins catch Robert Griffin III, the Jets have decided to keep their current quarterback.
For now.
Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reportedly earlier in the evening that the Jets are out of the Manning derby. Rich Cimini of ESPNNewYork.com reports that the Jets have actually extended the contract of quarterback Mark Sanchez.
It’s a three-year extension, which puts Sanchez under contract for five total seasons.
Still, until we see the dollars involved, we won’t believe it’s a genuine extension. Instead, it may be nothing more than a public show of support — in lieu of the usual public show of support that consists of saying one thing before doing another.
The truth will be in the details, starting with how large of a check the Jets cut Sanchez when he signed a name other than “Peyton Manning” to the new contract.
The Dolphins would be wise to offer Peyton Manning more money, because their Plan B has now evaporated.
Jay Glazer of FOX Sports reports that the Rams and the Redskins have agreed to terms on a deal that will send the second overall pick in the 2012 draft to Washington. The Redskins undoubtedly will pick quarterback Robert Griffin III. (Or, at the very worst, Andrew Luck.)
Glazer says that the teams will swap first-round picks in 2012, with St. Louis taking the No. 6 pick. The Rams also get two future first-round picks and additional selections, one of which is believed to be a second-rounder.The trade can’t be finalized until the new league year begins on Tuesday at 4:00 p.m. ET.
