Atlanta Falcons with a myriad of moves including re-signs and restructures
The Atlanta Falcons have restructured the contract of starting left tackle Jake Matthews, but that wasn’t the only move made this week.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution’s D. Orlando Ledbetter reported Thursday evening that the Falcons had come to an agreement with Matthews to convert his $13 million base salary in 2021 to a signing bonus, which can be spread over the final three years of his contract.
