How the Atlanta Falcons Create Salary Cap Space: Extensions, Trades & Restructures Galore!

Aaron discusses the ways in which the Atlanta Falcons can create salary-cap space, following up NFL Network's Steve Wyche's breakdown of the team's intentions to restructure, extend, and trade certain players.

He discusses Wyche's breakdown of the Falcons intention to be mid-market shoppers by re-signing Cordarrelle Patterson and how his 2021 success in Atlanta could be the model to attract free agents in 2022. Then, he breaks down whether or not big-money extensions are impending for players like Jake Matthews and Grady Jarrett, and the difficulties involved with extending them before the start of the new league year on March 16. Finally, he breaks down Wyche's report that the Falcons don't want to touch Matt Ryan's contract, and how that may signal that he is approaching his final years in Atlanta.
