As the Pittsburgh Steelers go another day without coming to terms on an extension with cornerback Joey Porter Jr, other teams around the NFL continue to get their guys paid. On Saturday, it was the Seattle Seahawks and Devon Witherspoon that got a deal done.
Per Adam Schefter , the Seahawks and the three-time Pro Bowler came to terms on a four-year, $132 million deal with $101 million guaranteed.
This comes after the Cleveland Browns and Denzel Ward agreed to an extension worth $31.1 million per year, as well as the Los Angeles Rams coming to terms on a deal with Trent McDuffie on a deal that will pay him $31 million per year.
In terms of what the Witherspoon deal means for the Steelers, Nick Farabaugh of PennLive estimates that a deal for Porter will now be in the neighborhood of four years, $120 million with $90 million in guaranteed money. Porter has yet to take the field in training camp or preseason, as he is on the PUP list with a back injury.
