As of this exact moment, the Falcons may now legally tamper with impending free agents. That means they can start negotiating contracts and getting things in place for Wednesday at 4 p.m., which gives teams a leg up over the olden days, when they would illegally tamper in the days and hours leading up to free agency and pretend they weren’t doing so.
If we know anything about the Falcons, it’s that they’re big fans of nailing down their one or two priority signings right away and then letting their cap space loosen up and/or the market settle before going after further additions.
