Packers free safety Nick Collins signed a three-year extension worth $23.4 million and will pay him $14 million in the first year. The extension comes just days after Collins agreed to sign his restricted free agent tender of $3.3 million as a goodwill gesture aimed at advancing negotiations toward a long-term deal. The contract binds Collins to the Packers through the 2013 season and assures that he will pocket more than half of the money before a potential work stoppage in 2011, which many are predicting.
