Manuel, 28, beat out Chris Crocker, Marlon McCree and others for the chance to compete for a starting safety job. Manuel signed a five-year, $10 million deal in 2006 with the Packers after he left the Seahawks following their Super Bowl season.
Manuel was cut by the Packers before spending last season as a backup with the Panthers, for whom he started two games. |

On two separate occasions, suspended Titans cornerback Pacman Jones has said he'd like to play for the Dallas Cowboys.
Eventually, he might get his wish.
The Titans in recent weeks have talked to a number of teams about Jones, and so far the Cowboys have shown the most interest, sources familiar with the situation said. The Miami Dolphins and a few others also appear interested.

Larry Fitzgerald agrees to $40 million, four-year deal - NFL - Yahoo! Sports

PHOENIX (AP)?Two-time Pro Bowl wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald signed a $40 million, four-year contract with the Arizona Cardinals on Tuesday just before leaving on a South American vacation he surely can afford.
The deal includes $30 million guaranteed, a generous figure for a franchise that was long considered one of the stingiest in sports.
The contract also includes a no-trade clause, which means Fitzgerald would have to approve any move to another team.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP)?Six years after leaving the franchise he helped turn into a Super Bowl contender, running back Warrick Dunn is coming back to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The three-time Pro Bowl selection signed Monday with the Bucs, who needed to bolster their running game because Carnell ?Cadillac? Williams missed most of last season with a knee injury. There are also lingering questions about when Williams will be able to play again.

Veteran quarterback David Carr agreed to a deal with the New York Giants on Wednesday.
A source said that the contract is for one year and $1 million with incentives that could increase the overall value of the deal.
The presence of Giants assistant coach Chris Palmer, who worked with Carr in Houston, was a major reason the quarterback chose New York.

McCareins started each game his first two seasons with New York but totaled only 13 starts over the past two seasons with 42 combined catches in that time.

Because he was undrafted and given the low restricted tender offer, the Bucs will not receive any draft choice compensation with his departure.
