The Atlanta Falcons and star wide receiver Drake London have officially reached an agreement on a four-year, $141 million contract extension, according to Marc Raimondi of ESPN.
London, who was selected by the Falcons with the eighth overall pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, has quickly established himself as the team's primary receiving threat. The new deal secures his place in Atlanta through the prime of his career and makes him one of the highest-paid players at his position in the league.
The extension comes as the Falcons continue to solidify their offensive core. Since entering the NFL, London has been a consistent producer for the franchise, leading the team in targets and receiving yards over his first two seasons. Specific details regarding the guaranteed money and structure of the deal have not yet been made public.
By locking up the former USC standout, the Falcons front office ensures long-term stability for their passing attack as they look to compete in the NFC South. The agreement was reached today and is expected to be signed shortly.
