Wide receiver Willie Snead said last Wednesday he was letting his agent handle his contract negotiations with the New Orleans Saints. Less than a week later, it seems a new agent will be pursuing the deal.
Snead has signed with agent Drew Rosenhaus of Rosenhaus Sports, according to a tweet from the agent on Tuesday. Snead's previous agent was Jim Miller of Off-Tackle Sports Management.
The 24-year-old receiver is an exclusive rights free agent, so Snead cannot negotiate with other teams. The Saints tendered him a one-year contract worth $615,000 in March, but Snead has not signed it yet, hoping for a long-term deal after totaling 141 catches for 1,879 yards the past two seasons.
