Joseph gets extension with Argos

The Toronto Argonauts and newly acquired quarterback Kerry Joseph agreed to a contract extension through the 2009 season Wednesday.

Financial details weren’t available

Joseph was scheduled to make $250,000 this year but was looking to be paid on par with other CFL starters, many of whom make between $300,000 and $350,000.

”This has been one of my better experiences negotiating a contract,” Argos’ vice president and general manager Adam Rita said. ”Kerry wanted to be here and we wanted him here.
