The Facts:
Brunell -- who started the first nine games last season before being replaced by Patrick Ramsey -- reworked his contract to save Washington about $1 million. The amount is significant because the Redskins have been in a salary cap quandary since trading wide receiver Laveranues Coles to the New York Jets for wideout Santana Moss.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Brunell was scheduled to make about $2 million this season -- a $500,000 roster bonus due this month, plus $1.5 million in base salary. He reportedly agreed to reduce his roster bonus to $235,000 and will earn $765,000, the NFL's minimum salary for a 12th-year veteran while serving as Ramsey's backup.
