| Bills Sign LB Chris Kelsay To A Four-Year, $24M Extension | | |
Eight-year veteran Chris Kelsay no longer has to worry about whether he'll fit in the Buffalo Bills new defensive scheme after the converted linebacker signed a four-year contract extension worth about $24 million. Kelsay revealed before practice Wednesday he had signed the extension a day earlier and is now locked up through the 2014 season. "I'm thrilled. I wanted to end my career here and this gives me an opportunity to do that," Kelsay said. "Obviously, it still comes down to production and putting it out on the field." Buffalo's second-round pick out of Nebraska in the 2003 draft, Kelsay is tied with two others as the second longest-serving member on the current roster behind punter Brian Moorman, a 10-year veteran. Kelsay is a defensive captain and has proven durable over his career, during which he's missed only two games due to injury. He was entering the final season of his existing four-year deal, which is scheduled to pay him a $3.7 million base salary.
