The second-year player

The Atlanta Falcons have agreed to terms on a three-year contract extension with kicker Matt Bryant.

 


The Falcons announced the agreement before Bryant could become a free agent on March 14.


In nine seasons with the Falcons [url=www.buffalobillsteamonline.com/marshall-newhouse-jersey]Authentic Marshall Newhouse Jersey[/url] , Bryant has made 88.1 percent of his field goal attempts 鈥?230 of 261 鈥?and has missed only one of 340 extra points.


Bryant, who will turn 43 on May 29, made 34 of 37 field goals in 2016 and 34 of 39 in 2017. He made eight of nine field goals from at least 50 yards last season.


Bryant passed Morten Andersen to become the team's all-time scoring leader in 2016, when Bryant was named to his first Pro Bowl.


Dylan Donahue is ready to focus on football again after an offseason of legal troubles.

 


The New York Jets linebacker pleaded guilty Wednesday in Weehawken Municipal Court to driving while intoxicated in connection with a wrong-way crash in the Lincoln Tunnel that injured four people in February. As part of a plea deal, three other charges were dismissed.


Donahue will have to drive with an ignition interlock device for a year after his license is reinstated.


”The court made their decision [url=www.ravenscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-anthony-averett-jersey]Authentic Anthony Averett Jersey[/url] , obviously,” Donahue said after practice Thursday, ”and I think they did what they thought was necessary and I agreed with it.”


Donahue is facing other DUI charges in his hometown of Billings, Montana, from an incident on May 9 [url=www.49erscheapstore.com/jimmy-garoppolo-jersey-cheap]Jimmy Garoppolo Youth Jersey[/url] , 2017 – 10 days after he was drafted by the Jets in the fifth round out of West Georgia. He said he expects that case to be settled in the next ”two to three days” and doesn’t anticipate having to appear in court.


The 25-year-old Donahue checked himself into a substance-abuse treatment facility in Jacksonville, Florida, for 30 days during the winter. He said his situation was ”absolutely … definitely” a wakeup call.


”Well, since the incident, I haven’t had a drop of alcohol [url=www.steelersfootballauthentics.com/terrell-edmunds-jersey-authentic]Terrell Edmunds Steelers Jersey[/url] ,” Donahue said when asked if his legal troubles have changed him. ”And I’ve encouraged my teammates that do have any issues with that subject, too. I like to help everyone out. It’s definitely changed my perspective on a lot of things.”


Donahue could be facing a suspension from the NFL as a result of the DWI arrests. He said he hasn’t yet heard from the league.


The second-year player is trying to earn a spot on the Jets’ roster after having his rookie season cut short by a torn ligament in his right elbow. Donahue is fully healthy, but acknowledged that his legal situation has weighed heavily on his mind.


”I can’t say it hasn’t,” he said. ”I mean, it was a pretty big deal and it’s something I’m not proud of [url=www.cincinnatiredsteamshop.com/authentic-cliff-pennington-jersey]Authentic Cliff Pennington Jersey[/url] , obviously. But I’m moving forward and I couldn’t be more excited to be a part of this team this year.”
