Players' big paydays not primary concern of Falcons owner Arthur Blank

With Oakland Raiders quarterback Derek Carr recently securing a five-year, $125 million contract, it's fair to wonder what might be next for reigning NFL MVP Matt Ryan and the Atlanta Falcons.

Owner Arthur Blank, who told ESPN at the Super Bowl that Ryan will be "compensated well" for his performance, didn't address Ryan's contract specifically during an appearance on 92.9 The Game radio Monday. Blank did, however, speak in general terms about lucrative contracts when asked by show cohost Carl Dukes how concerned he is by how expensive deals are in today's NFL.
