The Boston Globe reported today that Rodney Harrison's contract for the coming season has been adjusted.

The veteran safety was due to earn a base salary of $2.7 million in 2007, but his base salary is now $2 million, with another $200,000 possible with incentives.

His salary cap hit is now $2.7 million, down from $3.4 million, though his salary for 2008 -- $3 million base -- is the same.

It is entirely possible that Harrison simply received the money upfront, which is what happened when Tom Brady adjusted his deal for the team to sign Randy Moss.
