EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (March 31, 2004) -- Amani
Toomer was given a five-year, $20 million contract that will
keep the receiver with the New York Giants
through the 2008 season.
Toomer had three years left on his existing contract. He was to have
earned $3.9 million this season in base salary, and would have counted
$6.64 million toward the 2004 salary cap.
The new deal lowers his salary cap number for this season, but the team
said the real savings will come in later years.
Toomer, the team's leading receiver last year, had 63 catches and five
touchdowns in 16 games, averaging 66.1 yards a game.
