PatsFanTX Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/3854126 Quote: Jay Glazer / FOXSports.com Posted: 6 minutes ago The impasse between the New England Patriots and one of their best players appears to be over. FOXSports.com has learned the Patriots and their All-Pro defensive lineman Richard Seymour have come to a financial agreement to end his holdout with the two-time defending Super Bowl champions. Seymour is expected to report to the team by Wednesday morning. Seymour has been a holdout since camp began last week, as he's still working off his rookie deal. While the team did not lock him up to a long-term extension, the two sides came to an agreement for this season that worked out for both parties. It is expected that Seymour's agent and the Patriots will try to hammer out a long-term deal sometime this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PatsFanTX Posted August 2, 2005 Author Share Posted August 2, 2005 finally some good news out of pats camp ehh? This was huge finally getting Seymour into camp. Nice the Pats didn't cave in to his long-term contract demands with a huge signing bonus. Be real curious to see the details of the contract.

joewilly Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I doubt they sold the farm. pretty tight wallets. I'll be curious to see what happens with abe. Ellis got better every game last year & that would be an awesome set of bookends. with a healthy abe giving 100% & law coming in, skys the limit for this defense.

Maxman Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 I heard Bill slipped him 200k from the stolen money fund. That clinched the deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max, when Cubed calls in with her training camp report today, can you please ask her for an update on how well Abe is performing? Thanks, TX Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LionelRichie Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Max, when Cubed calls in with her training camp report today, can you please ask her for an update on how well Abe is performing? Thanks, TX at least he can't get hurt from home - it may make more sense to have him for the last 8 games than the first 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxman Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 Max, when Cubed calls in with her training camp report today, can you please ask her for an update on how well Abe is performing? Thanks, TX Abe is tired of hearing that he is never healthy for the stretch run. Abe is also aware that he is only capable of playing 8 games a year. He decided to play the last 8 this year instead of the 1st 8. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
