The Atlanta Falcons have extended defensive tackle Grady Jarrett to a three-year extension. Jarrett’s extension is reportedly worth $51 million over the next three years, but could be worth up to $67 million with incentives.
The NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported the news via Twitter on Tuesday.
The Falcons have been the only team for which Jarrett has played since being drafted by them in the fifth round of the 2015 NFL Draft. He has been selected to the Pro Bowl twice, in 2019 and 2020. His highest sack total came in 2019, with 7.5.
In 2021, Jarrett played in all 17 games. He had a combined 59 total tackles, 38 of them solo, which was a career record. He only had one sack, which was the fewest since his rookie season, but he did have three tackles for loss and a forced fumble.
