McAlister Saga continues in Maassluis
The unthinkable has happened. Nearly a year after quarterback Ellis McAlister told the Merchantmen he'd play out the 2081 season to be able to become a free agent, he has signed a three-year $100M contract to stay in Maassluis.
Following an up and down 9-7 season, missing the playoffs after being in a bye week spot going into the last quarter of the season, McAlister received a lot of the blame for the lack of success. With no other suitors, sticking in Maassluis was by far the better option for him, especially now that the team that picked him in the sixth round of the 2074 draft is finally willing to pay him starter money.
Along with McAlister, defensive tackle Chandler Posante signed a new contract in Maassluis, despite taking the same hold out in pre-season route. Of the three 2081 pre-season hold outs, only running back Walt Blair has packed up, taking a richer contract with the Brooklyn Fightin' Bums.
