The Atlanta Falcons have taken a first step to fix up one of the thinnest wide receiver corps in the NFL, as they’ll reportedly sign former Chicago Bears receiver Darnell Mooney to a three-year deal.
Mooney gets a three year, $39 million pact that will probably keep him in Atlanta for the two-to-three seasons that new signing Kirk Cousins is expected to be the team’s quarterback. For the moment, at least, Mooney slots in as the team’s second receiver behind Drake London, though the offseason is just getting started for Atlanta.
