The Atlanta Falcons and new quarterback Kirk Cousins are adding a new weapon.
The Falcons are signing wide receiver Darnell Mooney to a three-year, $39-million deal that includes $26 million fully guaranteed, sources told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Mooney's production took a step back in 2023 with 414 yards and one touchdown on 31 receptions in 14 starts for the Chicago Bears. However, he's just two seasons removed from an 81-reception, 1,055-yard, four-touchdown campaign.
The 26-year-old is expected to be Atlanta's No. 2 receiver behind former first-rounder Drake London, who led the Falcons with 905 yards in 2023. Mack Hollins finished second among the club's receivers with 251 yards.
Mooney, a fifth-round selection in the 2020 draft, recorded 213 catches, 2,593 yards, and 11 touchdowns in 60 career games with the Bears.
