Pro Football Rumors
Kaleb McGary‘s tenure in Atlanta will continue past 2025. Team and player have agreed to a two-year, $30MM extension, per an announcement from McGary’s agent.
Prior to today’s deal, McGary was on track for free agency next spring. Now, though, he is on the books through the 2027 campaign. Each of his six years in the league have come with the Falcons, and the 30-year-old’s latest contract increases the chances he will finish his career in Atlanta.
After playing out his rookie pact, McGary appeared at one point to be headed elsewhere on the open market. Instead, a three-year, $34.5MM pact was worked out to prevent a departure. With one season remaining on that $11.5MM-per-year accord, the former first-rounder has managed to increase his average annual value on this new contract without requiring much in the way of term from the team’s perspective.
