The Green Bay Packers have signed general manager Ted Thompson to a multiyear extension. The 58-year-old Thompson took over as general manager in 2005. The Packers beat the Pittsburgh Steelers 31-25 on Sunday to win the Super Bowl, just the second time a No. 6 seed has accomplished the feat. Thompson's old deal went through the 2012 season.
