If you’re looking for the Atlanta Falcons to extend Grady Jarrett past his 2018 contract, you might want to get comfortable.
Jason Butt of The Athletic reports that GM Thomas Dimitroff has indicated that talks are on hold with Jarrett for now.
Dimitroff told The Athletic that it is standard for the Falcons to push back negotiations for a player’s deal if nothing can be agreed upon by the start of the regular season. Dimitroff said he last spoke to Jarrett’s agent, Todd France of Creative Artists Agency, in the middle of last week.
