re-sign
Renew one's commitment
Re-sign means to sign again, typically to renew a contract or agreement.
The hyphen distinguishes it from resign (to quit), though context usually makes the meaning clear.
Sports reporting uses re-sign frequently when players extend their contracts with teams: The quarterback re-signed with the team for another three years.
The term applies broadly to any situation where someone commits again by signature to something they had previously signed.
