New York Jets RB/KR Leon Washington, who was named first-team All-Pro this year, has one year remaining on his contract.
Per Rich Cimini of the Daily News, Washington is "hopeful" that the current contract negotiations between him and the Jets will result in an extension in the $4-million-per-year range.

“Things are going,” Washington said. “The main thing that we have and they have is we both want to get something done. The Jets have been expressive of wanting to get something done. The Jets have done the right thing traditionally with Jerricho (Cotchery), Kerry Rhodes, with guys who have played well for this organization and have done the right thing.”Unlike backfield mate Thomas Jones, who's unhappy with his contract, Washington is participating in the team's off-season workout program.
