Veteran QB McNabb may get contract extension from new team

While he was traded away by his former team Philadelphia Eagles, veteran quarterback Donovan McNabb received much better treatment from his new team Washington Redskins. At age 34, he is now facing a big chance to receive contract extension from the Redskins. Now he may have changed him mind from putting on a Vikings jersey after the 2010 season to retire as a Redskin.

"We really haven’t started (talks)," Redskins GM Bruce Allen told Comcast SportsNet. "Donovan is so excited about this new opportunity—the team has embraced him, our fans clearly have embraced him. We’ll have plenty of time to get something done with him. We see him as part of our future. We would not have made the trade unless we see it that way, and he knows it.”

Unlike the high-profile 41-year-old quarterback wearing No.4 Brett Favre jersey, McNabb may not be able to play as well as he used to play when he was younger. What’s good with McNabb was that he has been calm with the changes and knows well that his value dropped as he grew old. If a contract extension is offered by the Redskins, he will just do his best to help the team, just to show his gratitude for being treated still as a key role.
