JACKSON, Miss. (AP) -- Reggie Bush agreed to a six-year deal with the New Orleans Saints on Saturday night and the Heisman Trophy winner will report to training camp Sunday, The Associated Press has learned.
A source with direct knowledge of the negotiations said they deal had been agreed to, but that he couldn't disclose financial terms.
Reached by phone at his home in New York, Bush's agent, Joel Segal, said he wouldn't comment until a deal had been signed. However, he said he was traveling to Jackson on Sunday to meet with Bush and the Saints.

Oh, thank God, I thought this was about George.

Beat you to it, Fenian!

 

[shockey]

wow. he almost made it through the entire season without signing, eh, all you hysterics out there?

 

[ballscribe]

Yup, that was scary. I thought either term limits had been abolished or Bush had pre-signed a deal for a Senate seat in '08.

I'm guessing the intial post was made for the benefit of copy editors late last night, since the story moved at deadline time in the East.

Bush will rush for 2,000 yards and score 25 touchdowns, and rebuild the Ninth Ward in his spare time. [/MichaelIrvinandeveryotherhyperbolicESPNanalyst]
