Eagles give McNabb a new deal

"The Eagles have restructured the final two years of quarterback Donovan McNabb's contract, the team said tonight. Terms of the deal have not been announced. McNabb's contract was slated to expire at the end of the 2010 season.

"Donovan has played a large part of this team's success over the last 10 years," Eagles chairman Jeffrey Lurie said in a press release. "He has been a professional in every sense of the word."

"We are thrilled that this all worked out," said Eagles president Joe Banner. "He is a great football player, a great person, and someone who gives back to the community. We are lucky to have him in Philadelphia."

Entering his 11th NFL season, all as an Eagle, McNabb is the franchise's all-time leader in passing yards (29,320), touchdown passes (194), attempts (4,303), and completions (2,534). He has led the Eagles to more regular season victories (82), and playoff appearances (7) than any other quarterback in team history.

McNabb, a five-time Pro Bowl selection, also holds the NFL record with 24 consecutive completions and is one of six players in league history with at least 25,000 passing yards and 3,000 rushing yards. The others are: Randall Cunningham, Steve Young, Fran Tarkenton, Steve McNair and John Elway."
