Ricardo Allen and Grady Jarrett are “next” after Jake Matthews contract extension

The Atlanta Falcons stayed very silent in free agency this year, but it appears to have been their plan all along. The team just broke off Julio Jones with a little more 2018 money, gave Jake Matthews a $75 million deal, and they don’t plan on stopping.

Up next are two of Atlanta’s top performing, young defensive players.

When the #Falcons adjusted WR Julio Jones’ deal, they made sure they could still reward LT Jake Matthews, DT Grady Jarrett and S Ricardo Allen. Now that Matthews & ATL have agreed to terms, Allen & Jarrett are next.
