Linebacker Rocky McIntosh has finally signed his one-year contract with the Washington Redskins, barely beating an NFL deadline.

The Redskins said Monday that McIntosh had signed his $1.759 million tender. The team could have reduced the offer if the restricted free agent had not signed it by Tuesday.

McIntosh is unhappy that the lack of new collective bargaining agreement kept him from becoming an unrestricted free agent this offseason. He was hoping to get a multiyear deal, but the Redskins offered him only the one-year tender.

McIntosh skipped the team's first voluntary minicamp to express his discontent, but he attended the second minicamp.

The Redskins also cut guard Paul Fanaika and kicker Justin Medlock.
