Kellen "broken" Winslow
Posted: Mon Sep 20, 2004 8:15 am
ESPN is reporting that Kellen Winslow could have a fractured leg. They are reporting that he could be gone for the season, but will be gone for at least 6-8 weeks. Hmm...

kellen who? what a loser.
Actually, it seems they will be getting him 5 million less, since he likely won't make the performance incentives tied to a 5 million dollar roster bonus.Redskin Stouff wrote:The Postons are trying to get KW2, another 5 million for pain and suffering.

Cleveland Browns TE Kellen Winslow Jr. (leg, ankle) will need to have surgery Wednesday, Sept. 29, to stabilize a sprain of the high ankle ligaments. This is being done to prevent laxity, head trainer Mike Colello said. Due to the procedure, Winslow will be out for the remainder of the 2004 season.

Tony Grossi of the Cleveland Plain Dealer reports that Browns tight end Kellen Winslow's total financial loss resulting from a broken leg suffered on a late-game onside kick in Week Two could be more than $10 million.
In addition to the loss of the $5.367 million incentive that Winslow's agents considered to be guaranteed money, Winslow's absence for 14 of 16 games this year will keep him from triggering the first of a series of escalators that, in the end, could cause him to lose $5.215 million in future base salaries.
In all, then, the contract's supposedly no-brainer value of $40 million now stands at $29.4175 million.
With that said, the far more grievous error was the failure of Winslow's agents, Carl and Kevin Poston, to ensure that the $5.367 million incentive trigger rolls over into future seasons.
So do we feel bad for Winslow? No. He knew what he was getting into when he hired the Postons, especially since the decision was made after the conflict regarding LaVar Arrington's contract extension came to light -- and after the Postons admitted that they didn't read the final draft.
