As we put a wrap on both the 2011 NFL regular season and, well, 2011, there are some year-end accounting issues and other concerns to address. Let’s look at a few of these areas of business:

Extensions

NFL teams have until Saturday at 4 pm eastern time to submit contract extensions. In such cases, any increase in 2011 compensation is treated as signing bonus and prorated through the life of the contract, with 2011 as one of the prorated years.

For example, were a player to receive a $5 million bonus and an additional four years on his contract, the bonus would be prorated with $1 million applied to 2011.

Yes. His left knee, his right knee and his wee knee. Don't you know nothing?

I'm assuming no update means that we'll have an offseason of waiting.
Weeeeee.
