More on Smoot. From today's times:
Note — Smoot confirmed that he recently fired Carl and Kevin Poston, the agents who represent Arrington and have accused the Redskins of removing a $6.5 million roster bonus from Arrington's contract extension.
The move to James "Bus" Cook was something Smoot had contemplated for several years, he said in a phone interview. Smoot added that the change had nothing to do with the Postons' admission that they did not read the final draft of Arrington's contract before he signed it.
"I went with my gut," Smoot said. "[Any connection to Arrington] was probably just bad timing."
