Packers agree to four-year deal with Morgan Burnett

Former Georgia Tech safety Morgan Burnett has agreed to terms on a four-year, $2.66 million contract with the Green Bay Packers, according to league sources.

The 6-foot-1, 209-pounder received an $875,000 signing bonus, the standard base salaries of $320,000, $405,000, $490,000 and $575,000 as well as a fourth-year escalator clause that can significantly boost the maximum value of the deal.

Drafted 71st overall out of Georgia Tech, Burnett is regarded as a mobile, hard-hitting presence in the secondary.
