Falcons give new pass rusher Bruce Irvin $3.25 million on prorated deal

As the good morning of Bruce Irvin continues, we now know the logistics behind the deal that the Atlanta Falcons made to get him in Flowery Branch.

The #Falcons are paying pass-rusher Bruce Irvin $3.2M prorated on a 1-year deal, source said. He’ll make $1.5M over 8 games, indicative of how strong his market was. He double-dips from the #Raiders. OAK pays the $3.8M left ($8.25M total), add in ATL’s $1.5M = $9.75M for 2018.
