If the sides don't put together a contract extension soon, the next development in the Matt Forte contract saga could take place next Monday when the league allows teams to apply the franchise tag to players.
Teams can apply the tag from Feb. 20 through Mar. 5 at 4 p.m. ET as a method of preventing a player from exploring the open market. Team president Ted Phillips and general manager Phil Emery haven't said the team's intention is to apply the tag, but the former made it clear the team won't let Forte test free agency, which begins at 4 p.m. ET on March 13.
