Clock Ticking on a Rivera Signing

March 3, 2005

The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel is reporting that Packers guard Marco Rivera is seeking a deal that approximates the one given to former teammate Adam Timmerman by the Rams several years ago. That deal was for five years and approximately $14.5 million, with a $5.5 million signing bonus.

The pressure is on the Cowboys front office to sign Rivera by today’s 10 am press conference because he also has visits scheduled with the Lions and Ravens.
