Packers and Sitton agree on five-year contract extension

Green Bay -- The Green Bay Packers made one very big signing on Friday, a day before they are scheduled to trim their roster to 53 players.

They have agreed to a five-year extension with guard Josh Sitton, who was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent after this season. The deal was announced through the Packers' web site and confirmed by Sitton on his Twitter account.

Sitton said that he would be locked up for the next six years, which means five years was added to his current contract. Sitton was due to make around $1.2 million this year

Great, now Josh Sitton will get injured by week 5 or he'll completely suck this year.

later in the article... like it hasn't been said a hundred times already.

The Packers were about $12.7 million under the salary cap before signing Sitton. They probably have enough money to fit in deals with TE Jermichael Finley and WR Jordy Nelson, both of whom are scheduled to become unrestricted free agents next year.

Great contract extension. Now he needs to get in on that hair endorsement with Matthews.

I like it. Getting the guys locked up early will be a good thing.

Wait, I thought Uncle Ted didn't spend money on guards.

You earned it Big Boy, now if all the pundits get off their ass and make you All-Pro like you've earned, Ted will have to get more kudos for getting you cheap.

beast (8h) : If they aren't doing it, then why are you assuming they know how to do it?

dfosterf (13h) : Mackelvie

dfosterf (13h) : Michael Macelvie- NFL teams know how to draft- Why don"t they?

dfosterf (13h) : Youtube

Zero2Cool (18h) : Packers were not selected for the 2025 Hall of Fame game.

dfosterf (20h) : PFOW Out of our division would be a good thing imo

Zero2Cool (22h) : Jameson Williams is done at 24 years old? What? He's a WR, not QB. I'm missing something here haha

wpr (22h) : Tomorrow is almost here.

packerfanoutwest (22h) : would you want him if Pack needed a back up qb?

packerfanoutwest (22h) : JW is done......stick a fork in him

Zero2Cool (23-Apr) : You should. He goes to AFC that helps Packers.

packerfanoutwest (23-Apr) : don't care

Zero2Cool (22-Apr) : Lions shopping Jameson Williams?

packerfanoutwest (22-Apr) : Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst says Green Bay’s roster can win, even without adding anyone in the draft.

beast (18-Apr) : 6 days

wpr (17-Apr) : 7 days

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : sounds like Packers don't get good compensation, Jaire staying

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Nobody coming up with a keep, but at x amount

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Trade, cut or keep

dfosterf (16-Apr) : that from Jaire

dfosterf (16-Apr) : My guess is the Packers floated the concept of a reworked contract via his agent and agent got a f'

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : Yes, and that is why I think Rob worded it how he did. Rather than say "agent"

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Same laws apply. Agent must present such an offer to Jaire. Cannot accept or reject without presenting it

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : I'm thinking that is why Rob worded it how he did.

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The Packers can certainly still make the offer to the agent

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Laws of agency and definition of fiduciary responsibility

dfosterf (16-Apr) : Jaire is open to a reduced contract without Jaire's permission

dfosterf (16-Apr) : The agent would arguably violate the law if he were to tell the Packers

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : That someone ... likely the agent.

Zero2Cool (16-Apr) : So, Jaire has not been offered nor rejected a pay reduction, but someone says he'd decline.
