According to a report last week
Matt Kemp Jersey , Falcons wide receiver Julio Jones was expected to skip at least the start of the team’s OTAs as he looks for a contract adjustment that
would bump up his take-home pay in 2018.
Jones has indeed been a no-show on the first two days of voluntary practice this week and that led to a question for team owner Arthur Blank at Tuesday’s
league meetings in Atlanta.
“It will be fine. It?? just a process we have to go through,” Blank said, via Vaughn McClure of ESPN.com.
Jones’ contract calls for a base salary of $10.5 million this year and the five-year pact has an average annual salary of $14.25 million. That currently
ranks eighth among wide receivers.

program. He would be eligible for fines if he does not take part in the team’s
mandatory minicamp next month.

The report adds that doctors are “hopeful and confident” that Baldwin will be able to resume his on-field work before the start of the regular season.
The coming weeks will surely bring further updates about when Baldwin will get back on the field. The longer it takes for that to happen, the more worry
will grow that the knee issue will plague him into the regular season. Given
Baldwin’s importance to the team and the lack of sure things behind him on the
