Several players have agreed to restructure their contracts to help the Washington Redskins get under the NFL's salary cap, maneuvers that would be voided if the league and players' union were to reach agreement on a new labor deal by Sunday.
Players known to have agreed to reworked contracts include quarterback Mark Brunell, running back Clinton Portis, cornerback Shawn Springs, guard Randy Thomas and defensive end Renaldo Wynn. The Redskins have negotiated with other players as well, including tackle Jon Jansen and linebacker LaVar Arrington, but the final status of those talks could not be confirmed.
