METAIRIE, La. -- Saints quarterback Drew Brees decided against holding out for the lengthy contract extension he coveted and took one for the team.Brees agreed to new contract that keeps him in New Orleans through the 2017 season, and a person familiar with the deal says it guarantees the record-setting QB $44.3 million the next two years.The person spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity on Wednesday because financial details of the extension had not been announced.The deal also provides the Saints with nearly $13 million in additional spending flexibility under the 2016 salary cap as the team continues to shuffle the roster in advance of Sundays regular season opener at home against Oakland.Earlier this summer, Brees had stated that he believes he can play at an elite level at least another five years.I wanted the contract to reflect that, naturally, and have it be the last contract that I signed, Brees said. But it was in the best interest of the team to make it a little bit shorter. And I think that just made everyone a bit more comfortable and it still put us in a very good position to go out and do the things we need to do to continue to build the team and put us in the best position to succeed.And that to me was the most important thing.The contract runs for five years, starting this season, and includes a $30 million bonus that, for now, can be prorated over that period, reducing the $30 million that Brees old contract would have counted against the Saints salary cap this season down to a little more than $17 million. The deal also has a no-trade clause, but the final three seasons are voidable, meaning the Saints and Brees, who turns 38 in January, will have to revisit the possibility of another extension next year.This allows me to be around here for a bit longer, and Ill be here as long as theyll have me, Brees said. My mindset is always everything happens for a reason and everything will happen the way its supposed to.The Saints should have more flexibility to make moves with Brees extension.Last week, the Saints brought in defensive end Paul Kruger, a pass rushing specialist who was recently released by Cleveland.Then on Wednesday, the Saints agreed to bring back veteran right guard Jahri Evans, who had been released by the Saints last winter and signed with Seattle, but did not make the Seahawks final cut.On Tuesday, the Saints cut kicker Kai Forbath and brought in rookie Wil Lutz.Brees owns Saints franchise records in virtually every passing category, having thrown for 48,555 yards and 348 touchdowns in 10 seasons with the club, which signed him as a free agent after San Diego decided not to offer Brees an extension and elevate Philip Rivers to starter. He also was named Super Bowl MVP when the Saints 2009 squad won New Orleans only NFL championship.His yards passing total with New Orleans is the most by any NFL quarterback in a 10-year span in league history.Brees had stated this summer that, in an effort to prevent his contract talks from becoming a distraction, that he would break off negotiations before the first game of the regular season. That meant the Saints had to reach an agreement with their star quarterback by this week to lock down Brees beyond this season while gaining the financial flexibility they sought.Brees was about to enter the final season of a five-year, $100 million contract he signed in 2012, one season after setting a then NFL-record with 5,476 yards passing. He also threw for 46 touchdowns in 2011, when the offense he ran piled up an NFL-record 7,474 yards.The Saints prolific QB again led the league in passing last season, but ultimately did not hold out for a contract that would pay him like the NFLs younger, top-tier QBs. In June, for example, Indianapolis Colts quarterback Andrew Luck agreed to an extension worth up to $140 million for the next six seasons, which averages out to about $23.3 million per year.Brees deal comes about six months after coach Sean Payton, who designed the offense that Brees has run, agreed to an extension in New Orleans through 2020. Now the coach and QB tandem will try to make a run at another Super Bowl.Game notes The Saints released third-string QB Garrett Grayson, a 2015 third-round draft choice, but could potentially bring him back as a practice squad player if he clears waivers.---Online: AP NFL websites: http://www.pro32.ap.org and http://www.twitter.com/AP-NFL Cheap Buccaneers Jerseys . The phone hearing is scheduled for 4:30pm et/1:30pm pt. Winchester, who was not penalized for the hit, appeared to make contact with Kellys head early in the first period of Thursdays game in Boston. Jordan Whitehead Jersey .Y. -- Syracuse has turned up the defence at the right time all season, and when High Point threatened to pull off a monumental upset the second-ranked Orange did what they do best with their quick hands and savvy play. http://www.cheapbuccaneersjerseyschina.com/ . -- Three close looks at the bucket, three misses. Alex Cappa Jersey . A lawyer for MLB, Matthew Menchel, confirmed Wednesday the league dropped its case against Biogenesis of America, its owner Anthony Bosch and several other individuals. The lawsuit had accused Biogenesis and Bosch of conspiring with players to violate their contracts by providing them with banned performance-enhancing substances. Vita Vea Jersey . Batiste, who briefly signed with the Eskimos in 2006, has spent time with several NFL teams including the Pittsburgh Steelers and Washington Redskins. It took a miracle for I May to make it to San Francisco. They came back from a seemingly impossible deficit in the fifth game of the Chinese Regional Qualifier finals against Team WE to extend I Mays 2016 season. In a group at the World Championships that features defending world champion SK Telecom T1, surging Cloud9, and Taiwanese king Flash Wolves, the Chinese Cinderella has another uphill battle for survival.Survive and advance has become the personality of this I May Team, and its Friday opener against Flash Wolves personified it. The Chinese third-place club came back from a mid-game deficit to take another unthinkable win over a heavy favorite to start its Worlds campaign with a positive record.ESPN spoke to I Mays jungler Fan Avoidless Jun Wei following his teams improbable win over Taiwans top team.Going into the match, of course we expected to win, said Avoidless. But to rate myself, on how I performed, I dont think I did that well, especially in the early game [where] I died a lot. But in the end we won, so thats that.China boasts possibly the strongest trio of starting junglers entering Worlds. Not only has Avoidless stood out on the scrappy underdog from I May, but Royal Never Give Ups Liu Mlxg Shi-Yu and Edward Gamings Ming Clearlove Kai are widely considered two of the best at their position in the world. One of them inspired Avoidless as he made his way up into the professional gaming world.One of my idols is definitely EDGs jungler Clearlove, he said. Hes one of the best junglers in China.On which western junglers he respects or is interested in pplaying, Avoidless answered: As for NA or EU junglers Im looking forward to meet up or play against, this Ill have to answer once we get out of group stage then Ill let you know which jungler I look forward to meet.ddddddddddddRNG is known for its high mechanical ceiling, star-studded roster, and overpowering offensive play, and EDG is known for its complete control and immense strength in the jungle and bottom lane roles. I May, to the western audience at least, is a mystery, making it into the tournament after only participating in Chinas secondary league one split ago in the spring.[I May] is very team-oriented, he said. Even though a lot of times you might see us at a disadvantage in the early [game] we are able to communicate with each other, and every single game where we are down there is always a chance we can come back and take victory.In a region generally known for its individual talents and standout stars, I May are the opposite. A mixture of different cultures and player histories, the third-place Chinese team truly deserves its Never give up brand.At the end when asked what he wanted to say to his next two opponents, Cloud9 and SK Telecom T1, Avoidless shyly laughed and said, Id like the two teams to know that ... please dont go too harsh on us. This is our first time. Give us a little hope.Regardless of how it wins, only one thing matters: I May wants to live to see another day, and hope exists within the comeback kings.
