The Matt Cassel extension we reported on was told to us from someone very, very close to Matt. This person is a trusted friend and would have no reason to lie about what he knew. We aren’t looking for sensational headlines, and when the story was told, we felt so confident with our source that we ran with it. The Chiefs deny that there’s an extension, but they also denied that Tony Gonzalez was going to the Falcons. They insisted nothing was happening. So we’re still confident with the source who told us that Cassel has agreed to it. He’s never been wrong and knows a few things about journalism.
