Former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Javon Walker is set to sign a five-year extension worth more than $40 million with the Denver Broncos, who acquired him in a draft-day deal.
"We do have a deal in place," Walker's agent, Kennard McGuire, wrote in an e-mail to The Associated Press.
"I can't give you details," McGuire added, other than to confirm the extension was worth between $40 million and $42 million.
The Broncos have a policy of not discussing financial terms of contracts.
Walker, who is still recovering from a major knee injury he sustained in last year's season opener, is expected to sign the pact Wednesday. The extension will take him through 2011.
"Wow. It was something I wasn't expecting," Walker told KRIV-TV in his hometown of Houston. "Now that it's true, it's going to make me work that much harder for all the reasons I did get the contract."
