No word yet on the terms:

I guess McNair had to do this and it's probably the right thing to do. I'm a little more comfortable with extending Smith, but for Kubiak, I'm still a bit on the fence with him and in the 'prove it to me stage'. How much of his success was McNair's mandate of hiring Wade and him finally getting a competent DC?

Like I said, it's probably the right thing to do at this point and I'm good with both extensions.
