Thailog80 Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 Im reading on KFFL that NE signed Chris Redmond and Jake Schifino to future contracts and no details were available. How does that work?

eSJayDee Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 I would guess that since their 2004 season isn't over yet (playoffs), it meant they signed them for 2005. Maybe it would give other non-playoff teams too much of an advantage filling up next year's roster ahead of playoff teams.
nodnarb Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 good question. i think this might be tied to the "patriots exception" clause, which also allows for offensive holding as long as it's cleverly applied.
clumping platelets Posted January 10, 2005 Posted January 10, 2005 Late in the season, teams can sign players to futures contracts. It is basically a deal that starts the following season.
