GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Ha Ha Clinton-Dix's return for the Green Bay Packers' mandatory minicamp gave him the chance to dispel the notion that he skipped the OTAs because he wants a new contract. He did that -- with a wink.
The former Pro Bowl safety said Tuesday that he stayed at home because of a family issue -- the death of his godmother. But when asked if that was the only reason, Clinton-Dix winked.
He's entering the final year of his rookie deal; he's in the fifth-year -- an option that the Packers exercised -- and will make $5.
