Football League have been dispelled -at a high price for the Chicago Bears. The Bears Thursday signed McMahon to a renegotiated 5-year pact reportedly worth between $3.5 million and $5 million, making the former Brigham Young star one of the five highest paid quarterbacks in the NFL and the second highest paid Chicago player behind running back WalterPayton. The new contract will begin in 1985 because McMahon still has one year left on an agreement he signed as a rookie in 1982. Chicago general manager Jerry Vainisi said the Bears initiated new contract talks last December. "We renegotiated because of what's been happening in pro football recently," Vainisi said.
