so, according to allen, don't blame the team for not trying. >> we made kirk an offer that included the highest fully guaranteed amount upon signing for a quarterback in nfl history. $53 million. the deal would have made him at least the second highest paid player in nfl history. but we have not receive mid officer from curt's agent this year. curt has made it clear to me he prefers to play on a year to year basis. but don't cry for him despite not signing a long-term deal he will make nearly $24 million on the franchise tag next season. that is fourth behind derek carr, andrew luck and drew brees. if the redskins decide to give co
