Packers Intend to Keep Lee
November 2, 2007
The Green Bay Packers have begun contract negotiations with representatives for tight end Donald Lee that they hope will lock him up for years to come.
Lee, one of the most improved players on the roster, is the only starter among the seven players due to become unrestricted free agents in March.
“They contacted my agent,” Lee said Friday. “I told them just get me a fair deal and I’ll be happy. I’m not big on material things. I told them I don’t want to know numbers and what’s going on. I don’t want to focus on that.”

“We’re not surprised (he’d go from Tampa Bay defensive backs coach to Steelers head coach in only two years). We had guys like (John) Lynch who were saying, ‘There’s something about this guy, something special.’ He had everything down to the fine-point detail. If you were playing a man (defense), he had the exact number of yards (to play) off the receiver. … He knows how to push certain guys, and not to push certain guys. That’s what I liked about him.”
