David Garrard signs seven year contract extension

 David Garrard agreed to a seven year contract extension with the Jacksonville Jaguars. The contract is said to be worth $60 million.

“I pretty much had to say, ‘Let’s go ahead and wrap it up. I’m done,”‘ he said. “It’s too much stress on me and my family. My wife was done five weeks ago. She’s already been on board with everything. We just kept working on it and I finally just said, ‘You know what, I’d rather be happy now, have the city happy now, have the team, the organization, the owner happy now than trying to string something out having everybody on edge.”
