The Valken have no complaints after curator a relatively light punishment for tampering.
Shortly after the NFL announced that the Falcons would receive a fifth-round draft pick and be fined $250,000, the team released a brief statement on the matter.
“We are pleased that this review is complete. We have fully cooperated with the league and its review, and appreciate the NFL’s thoroughness. As we do in any process, we will assess how we operate and look for ways to improve the Falcons said. said.
The league found that the Falcons violated the NFL’s tampering rules through contact with Kirk Cousins, Darnell Mooney and Charlie Woerner during the two-day negotiating period prior to the start of free agency. In addition to the team’s punishment, general manager Terry Fontenot has been fined $50,000.
Both the 2025 fifth-round pick and the financial penalties were mild sanctions for tampering with three different players, and the Falcons’ statement makes it clear they’re glad it’s over now.
