The Atlanta Falcons have added a familiar and experienced name to their defensive front, signing three-time Pro Bowl defensive end Za'Darius Smith to a one-year contract on Tuesday.
The move gives Atlanta another proven pass rusher at a time when the team is dealing with significant losses along the defensive line. Financial details were not disclosed by the Falcons, although NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported that Smith's contract is worth $6 million and could reach $8 million if he earns the available incentives.
