New Contract

The 28-year-old is still plenty dangerous in Atlanta’s secondary, but we might be seeing signs of a bit of regression through the balance of 2025. With 2026 being a contract year, and Bates holding a $24.7M cap figure, there’s reason to consider this a fluid situation heading into the winter months. The Falcons hold $18.25M of dead cap on the deal next season. |
