The Atlanta Falcons took a break from training camp to take care of a little unfinished business. On Tuesday afternoon, the team announced a two-year, $30M extension for offensive tackle Kaleb McGary. McGary, 30, has started for the Falcons ever since he was drafted 31st overall in the 2019 NFL Draft. This marks his second extension with Atlanta and keeps him under contract through the 2027 season.
After an up-and-down start to his NFL career, McGary settled in at right tackle and became an absolute force as a run blocker. His pass protection, while inconsistent at times, has largely improved as well.
