Despite assertions, Kitna IS under contract for 2010

By Joe D.

Fanhouse listed Jon Kitna as an unrestricted free agent.  This struck me as odd considering Kitna reworked his contract immediately after he was traded from the Lions.  After 3 minutes of research and 2 Google searches, I determined that Kitna quietly signed a four year extension during the Cowboys 2010 playoff run.  While Stephen McGee, a 2nd year QB from Texas A&M, can be a suitable back up and potentially a starter one day, I would have reservations about him taking over in a pinch, especially after the debacle at backup QB that occurred in 2008.
