Whew: the New Orleans Saints have reached an agreement with defensive end Carl Granderson on a four-year contract extension, as first reported by NFL Network’s Mike Garafolo. ESPN’s Adam Schefter reports that the deal is valued at $52 million with $35.3 million guaranteed; Garafolo adds that annual $2 million incentives raise the deal’s maximum value to $60 million. He was set to become an unrestricted free agent in the spring.
