  Falcons | Jeff Okudah has no fifth-year option    Mon May 1, 09:42 AM

Atlanta Falcons CB Jeff Okudah is not eligible for a fifth-year option. When the Detroit Lions agreed to pay $1.5 million of his 2023 salary to facilitate the trade, and his option was off the table. He has one year and $3.682 million left on his deal.

Footballguys view: Okudah has a ton of natural talent, but his pro career has been derailed by a rash of injuries. He gets a fresh start with the Falcons, and this season will be a contract year for him. If Okudah plays up to his still-enormous potential, he would be in line for a nice payday next offseason.
