Grady Jarrett will be in Atlanta for several more years.

On Monday Jarrett signed a four year, $68 million contract with the Atlanta Falcons, including a $18 million signing bonus, $42.5 million guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $17 million.

The 26-year-old defensive tackle was drafted in the fifth round by the Falcons in 2015 and has spent his entire four-year NFL career with the team.

In his four year NFL career the 6'/305 pound lineman has amassed 179 tackles, 14 sacks, three forced fumbles and one fumble recovery. 

The new deal with the Falcons makes Jarrett the highest paid defensive tackle in the league.
