dsciambi Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4799532 After an afternoon of negotiations produced an agreement, Mike Shanahan signed a five-year contract to become head coach and executive vice president of football operations for the Washington Redskins.Under the terms of the new deal, Shanahan will team with Redskins executive vice president and general manager Bruce Allen, but Shanahan will have the ultimate authority on football decisions. Shanahan will be introduced as the Redskins head coach at a 2 p.m. ET news conference Wednesday. As the contract was being signed at the Redskins' training complex, Shanahan and owner Dan Snyder posed together for a picture. Then, with the deal signed, Shanahan, his agent Sandy Montag, Allen and Snyder headed out for a celebration dinner in Washington, D.C. The contract is worth approximately $7 million a year, the Denver Post reported on its Web site. Now that Shanahan has been hired elsewhere, the Denver Broncos, who fired Shanahan one year ago, will recoup $7 million in offset money over the next two seasons under the terms of the agreement they had with the coach. No offense to the other news stories, but ESPN seems a bit more "official" than Fanhouse and PFT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LuvtheSkins428 Posted January 6, 2010 Share Posted January 6, 2010 http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/news/story?id=4799532No offense to the other news stories, but ESPN seems a bit more "official" than Fanhouse and PFT. And yet the Washington Post is STILL saying the reports out of Denver are "premature." Unreal. Can you send them this report please? . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
