Kirk Cousins is not going to have some help in the passing attack.
One day after signing the veteran quarterback, the Atlanta Falcons went out and signed a wide receiver.
Former Chicago Bears wide receiver and current unrestricted free agent, Darnell Mooney, is signing with the Falcons. He is getting a three-year, $39 million contract with $26 million fully guaranteed.
The Chiefs reportedly had some interest in Mooney, but he ultimately chose to head to Chicago.
Mooney is coming off a four-year, $3.56 million rookie deal. He declined a three-year extension with the Bears ahead of the 2023 season.
The 26-year-old had 414 receiving yards and a touchdown on 31 receptions this past season. He will be a nice addition to a Falcons squad that is looking to make some noise in 2024.
