Majkowski Proposal Is Rejected
GREEN BAY, Wis. — Don Majkowski’s attorney said Tuesday the Green Bay Packers’ holdout quarterback would be willing to play for the NFL minimum of $80,000 this season if he can become an unrestricted free agent in 1991.
But a Packer executive rejected the proposal.
Bob Woolf, Majkowski’s Boston-based agent, said contract talks with the Packers were at an impasse.
Woolf said he and agent Randy Vataha talked with Majkowski, and the quarterback said he would be willing to play for the minimum--if the Packers continued to negotiate or gave him a chance at unrestricted free agency next February.
From February until April, Majkowski was a restricted free agent, meaning the Packers could have matched any offer for his services or let him go for two first-round draft choices.
Majkowski received no offers and his rights returned to the Packers.
