    Dallas Cowboys cornerback Orlando Scandrick had a busy Wednesday night. He blocked a field goal attempt, picked off a pass and knocked down a few passes at Cowboys Stadium and agreed to terms on a contract extension.

    Terms were not disclosed, but the five-year extension is worth $27 million with $10 million guaranteed, according to a source with knowledge of the deal.

    He'll get an additional $2 million this season, and an average of $5 million per season for the added years.

    Scandrick finished the deal 30 minutes before the start of practice and said it was a relief.

    "I had a number I wanted to get," said Scandrick, a fifth-round pick in the 2008 NFL draft from Boise State. "I wanted to be here and everything just fits. It was a great deal for me and the team. I didn't want to be greedy."
