Football Betting Lines

09/09/2010 - Arlington, TX (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Dallas Cowboys signed wide receiver Miles Austin to a six-year contract extension on Thursday.

Though financial details of the agreement were not released, a report on the team's website stated the deal is worth $54 million.

Austin, who was scheduled to make $3.168 million under a one-year tender during the upcoming season, set career highs with 81 receptions for 1,320 yards and 11 touchdowns in 2009 on his way to being chosen for the Pro Bowl.

In Week 5 last season, he set a team record with 250 yards on 10 catches with two touchdowns in a 26-20 win over Kansas City in overtime.

He has appeared in 53 games and has 99 catches for 1,674 yards and 14 scores. Also, he has returned 89 kicks for an average of 24.1 yards.

The Cowboys open the 2010 regular season against Washington on Sunday night.

"This is great for me, but the most important thing is to get ready for the Redskins," Austin said. "That's still the No. 1 goal for me and this team. We want to win as many games as possible."
