Overview
- The Falcons officially signed Drake London on Monday to a reported four-year extension worth $141 million with $100 million guaranteed and up to $150 million in incentives.
- London’s deal averages $35.25 million per year, which places him among the top-paid wide receivers and is the highest average-per-year contract in Falcons history according to published league figures.
- He will play the 2026 season on his fifth-year rookie option and the new extension then runs through the 2030 campaign.
- The team held London out of OTAs so he could complete the paperwork, and he posted a message to fans after signing that he was excited to remain in Atlanta.
- The commitment secures Atlanta’s top pass-catcher but tightens cap room and raises pressure to sort other contracts and roster moves, including extension talks for Bijan Robinson and Kyle Pitts and the ongoing quarterback competition between Tua Tagovailoa and Michael Penix Jr.
