On December 9, 2024, Micah said this to Todd Archer:
You see a lot of times, the highest-paid player, and we see they don't have weapons. I'd rather just be in the best situation. At that point, I don't think there's a big difference between $30 and $40 million. I don’t need 40.”
That is very different from what he is saying here. Micah says that he had to be the highest paid EDGE for guys like Will Anderson and Aidan Hutchinson.
Just in: The #Falcons and WR Drake London have agreed to a 4-year, $141M extension, per @AdamSchefter.
The former No. 8 overall pick has caught 309 passes for 3,961 yards and 22 TDs in four seasons and is now one of the highest-paid receivers in football.
