The long, seemingly never-ending Deion Jones saga finally came to a close for the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday. It was an unceremonious end for Debo, who returned to the field briefly at the end of training camp before ending up on injured reserve for the first five weeks of the 2022 NFL season. The former Pro Bowler was traded to the Cleveland Browns for a late-round pick swap all the way in 2024.
Obviously, the Falcons were looking for anyone willing to take on his contract over the next two years. There weren’t many takers, and I’m guessing the Browns offer was either the best or the only one the team had received.
