In less than 24 hours, Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk was released and re-signed.
News broke regarding Hawk’s new deal around midnight, just as my wife was telling me I have a PFT addiction. The deal become official on Thursday when Hawk put pen to paper.
Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel guessed that Hawk will get roughly $6-7 million-per-year, with $10 million guaranteed. A source told him the estimate was “about right.”
It’s hard to imagine Nick Barnett returning with so much money going to Hawk and Desmond Bishop.
