Redskins re-sign DE Daniels, OL Williams

Football Betting Lines

03/05/2010 - Ashburn, VA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Washington Redskins on Friday re-signed defensive end Phillip Daniels and offensive lineman Mike Williams.

Daniels started all 16 games for the Redskins last year, recording 46 tackles, one sack, and three passes defensed. The Georgia product has been with Washington since the 2004 season.

The 37-year-old Daniels helped Washington's defense finish ranked 10th in the NFL last season.

"We are excited to have Phillip onboard as we prepare for our off-season conditioning program," Redskins executive vice president/head coach Mike Shanahan said.

The 6-foot-6, 305-pound Daniels, who is entering his 15th NFL season, has registered 615 tackles, 60 sacks, 16 forced fumbles, and 12 fumble recoveries in 187 career games (167 starts) with the Seahawks, Bears, and Redskins

In his first season with the Redskins last year, Williams started five games at right guard and three contests at right tackle.

The 30-year-old Williams has played in 60 career games (58 starts) for the Buffalo Bills (2002-05) and the Redskins (2009). The Texas product spent the 2006 season with the Jacksonville Jaguars on injured reserve and was out of football during the 2007 and 2008 seasons.

"Mike showed a tremendous work ethic and willingness to do whatever the team asked of him, and those are two of the traits we're looking for in Redskins players," Shanahan said. "We believe that he's only scratched the surface of his abilities so far, and look forward to seeing what he can do after a full offseason in our program."

Also on Friday, the Redskins signed defensive lineman Lorenzo Alexander to a contract extension. Alexander will be a linebacker in Jim Haslett's defense.

Last season, the 26-year-old Alexander played in all 16 games as a defensive tackle and defensive end, recording 22 tackles, two sacks, one pass defensed, one forced fumble, and one fumble recovery.

Matt Kenseth And Kevin Harvick Favorites To Take NASCAR Nextel Cup Championship

(September 15)—The NASCAR season has hit the homestretch with the opening event on this year’s Chase for the Cup taking place this weekend at the Sylvania 300 at New Hampshire International Speedway. With 10 races remaining to determine the Cup Series champion, leading online sportsbook MySportsbook.com today announced odds on all 10 Chase qualifying drivers capturing the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship.

One of the largest sportsbook sites on the Internet, MySportsbook.com currently lists the top two drivers in the point standings as the early favorites to win the Nextel Cup. Entering the Chase for the Cup with a slim five-point lead in the point standings, 2003 NASCAR champ Matt Kenseth has been made a slight favorite to win his second Cup at 7/2 betting odds. 2001 Cup Rookie of the Year Kevin Harvick has betting odds listed at 5/2 and four-time NASCAR champion Jeff Gordon is listed at 6/1 to capture the Nextel Cup this year.

Hoping to follow in the footsteps of his legendary father who won six NASCAR titles, Dale Earnhardt Jr. stands at 8/1 to breakthrough with his first Cup victory. Staying with the family theme, MySportsbook.com lists 2005 Rookie of the Year Kyle Busch at 14/1 to succeed big brother Kurt’s 2004 NASCAR title. While Kasey Kahne was the final driver to qualify for the Chase with a third place finish last week, the oddsmakers give him a fighting chance at 10/1 mainly due to several mile-and-a-half tracks remaining on the schedule. Despite going winless on the NASCAR circuit this season, Jeff Burton enters the Chase at 5/1 to capture the Cup title.
