While the Falcons just picked up Chris Lindstrom’s fifth-year contract option, they declined to do so for fellow 2019 first rounder Kaleb McGary. That makes the 2022 season a contract year for McGary, who will be hoping to show the Falcons and other teams around the league that he’s ready to land a big-money second contract.
The news was reported by ESPn’s Jeremy Fowler, who also broke the news of Lindstrom’s option.
The Falcons are not picking up the fifth-year option of right tackle Kaleb McGary, per source. So, OG Chris Lindstrom locked up by Atlanta for 2023, while McGary set to be a free agent next year.
