'BOYS KEEPING GLENN
The Dallas Morning News reports that the Cowboys have decided to pay a $5 million roster bonus owed to receiver Terry Glenn, which means that he'll remain on the team for the 2007 season.
Glenn is scheduled to earn a base salary of $820,000 in 2007, and he is signed through 2010.
The other starting receiver, Terrell Owens, is due to receive a $3 million roster bonus in June.
Use of an earlier roster bonus forces the team to decide quickly in the offseason whether to keep a player. And it gets the player onto the free-agent market earlier, too, if the team decides not to pay the money.

I read the other day that the boys where looking at paying the 5mil as a signing bonus instead of a roster bonus that way it is prorated over the length of the contract.
