Although terms weren't disclosed, the official site did have a quick rundown of what Bouye has accomplished since he signed with the team as an undrafted rookie free agent back in 2013.
In 2015, he played in a career-high 15 games (two starts) and contributed with 14 solo tackles, six passes defensed and two interceptions. In 2014, Bouye set career highs in every category as he tied for the team lead with three interceptions, including one returned for a touchdown.
Bouye wasn't particularly effective most of last season, but he did have a MASSIVE pick in the division and playoff-clinching win over the Colts in Indianapolis. Plus, veteran depth is veteran depth, and it stands to reason that it didn't cost much to retain him. Your thoughts on the re-signing?
UPDATE: The terms of Bouye's new contract:
@battleredblog terms were the Bouye signed his tender. $1.671m one year deal. UFA in 2017
