Sun @ 8:20 pm – Wright has the scoop on the terms of Kampman’s deal: four years, $26 million, with $11 million guaranteed. The contract is virtually the same as the one signed by Kampman in Detroit.
11:05 am – Despite several rumors floating around that indicated defensive end Aaron Kampman (Packers) was on his way to Seattle or Philadelphia, the only trip he took this weekend was to speak with the Jaguars. And in the end, it will still be his only visit, after he signed a contract agreement with Jacksonville early this morning.
The story was first reported by Michael Wright of the Florida Times-Union, and while terms of the deal have not been released as of yet, it’s likely that Kampman’s contract will be similar to the one signed by fellow pass rusher Kyle Vanden Bosch earlier in the weekend with Detroit.
The move for Kampman was expected, given the Jaguars definite need for improvement in their pass rush, and Kampman’s desire to get back to playing in a 4-3 base defense, where he thrived for much of his career.
