Receiver, returner Parrish signs extension with Bills

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- The Buffalo Bills signed receiver
Roscoe Parrish to a contract extension late Friday. The length of
the extension was not immediately disclosed.

Parrish was about to enter the final year of a four-year deal he
signed after the club drafted him in the second round of the 2005
draft. He was set to make a base salary of $520,000 in 2008.

The diminutive receiver, who has a league-leading 17.5-yard punt
return average, has emerged as one of Buffalo's top offensive
threats. Parrish has recorded a touchdown in three different
categories this season -- rushing, receiving and punt return.

Parrish has already broken the team record for punt return yards
in a season with 386. His 936 career punt return yards rank second
in franchise history, and he needs 110 yards to move into first
place.

Parrish, the team's third receiver, has also contributed 33
catches for 307 yards this season.
