Redskins ink P Tress Way to four-year, $15 million contract extension

The Redskins decided to keep Way along for the ride as they enter a hopefully bright future, inking the punter to a four-year extension.

Washington Redskins punter Tress Way was honored earlier this month when he was named to the first Pro Bowl of his career, and now he is collecting a check to go along with it.

According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Redskins are signing Way to a four-year extension that is worth more than $15 million, putting him under contract for the next five years.

The deal is not currently finalized, but it is expected to be signed on Monday.

Way has had a career season in 2019, and he has pinned an opponent inside its 20-yard line 50 times over the past two years and booted it into the end zone for a touchback just twice in 145 attempts. The contract extension is well deserved, and it will ensure that Washington has a dynamic special teams player for years to come.
