According to Jordan Schultz, the Falcons are signing OL Germain Ifedi to a one-year deal on Wednesday.
Atlanta hosted Ifedi for a visit in recent weeks and was impressed enough to get a contract done. He has ties to new Falcons executive Ryan Pace from their time together in Chicago.
Ifedi, 27, is a former first-round pick of the Seahawks back in 2016. He was entering the final year of his four-year contract worth $8,265,110 and set to make a base salary of $1,577,060 for the 2019 season when Seattle declined his fifth-year option.
Last year, Ifedi signed a one-year, $1 million deal with Chicago. Ifedi then re-signed a one-year contract worth up to $5 million with the Bears last year.
In 2021, Ifedi appeared in nine games for the Bears, making seven starts for them at right tackle.
