The Atlanta Falcons have officially finalized significant contract extensions for wide receiver Drake London and tight end Kyle Pitts, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
The move secures two of the franchise's most prominent offensive weapons as the organization continues to solidify its long-term future. Drake London, selected eighth overall in the 2022 NFL Draft, and Kyle Pitts, the fourth overall pick in 2021, have both served as cornerstones of the Falcons' passing attack since their respective arrivals in Atlanta. By completing these deals simultaneously, the front office has ensured that their primary targets remain under team control for the foreseeable future.
With the extensions for London and Pitts now signed, all eyes in the league turn toward star running back Bijan Robinson. Per Rapoport, Robinson is the next priority for the team as they look to keep their young offensive core intact. While the specific financial details of the new contracts for London and Pitts have not yet been made public, they are characterized as "big-time" extensions reflecting their status within the league.
