Comcast Sportsnet in Philadelphia reports that the Eagles are close to signing off on a new contract for Donovan McNabb.
It isn't expected to be an extension, even though McNabb is only signed through 2010, but should give him a nice signing bonus. The 32-year-old threw for a career-high 3,916 yards last year and 23 touchdowns, his most since 2004. NcNabb is no longer the dual threat he once was, but shows no signs of decline as a passer. He's currently due $9.2 million in 2009 salary.
