Packers to discuss extension for Shields
Sam Shields - DB - Green Bay Packers
Feb. 17, 2013 - 12:00 AM ET
The Packers plan to discuss a long-term deal with restricted free agent CB Sam Shields.
The Packers will place at least a second-round tender on Shields, and could look to sign him to an extension rather than pay him the roughly $2 million he would count against the cap on a one-year deal. Shields missed significant time due to injury in 2012, but will return in a starting role with Green Bay.
