Terrell agreed Thursday with the Falcons on a four-year, $81 million contract extension, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. The deal includes $65.8 million guaranteed and makes Terrell the second-highest paid cornerback on an annual basis at $20.25 million, trailing only the Packers' Jaire Alexander, per Marc Raimondi of ESPN.com. Terrell, whom the Falcons took 16th overall in the 2020 NFL Draft, was a second-team All-Pro selection in 2021, when he recorded career highs in tackles (81), pass breakups (16) and interceptions (three). He hasn't recorded an interception over the last two seasons, but he's still amassed 20 pass breakups during that span.

Terrell finished 2023 with 45 tackles (34 solo) and 11 pass defenses in 17 appearances. Terrell is considered one of the best cover cornerbacks in the league, but he's struggled to generate production the last two seasons, especially in the playmaking department. After totaling four interceptions and four forced fumbles across his first two NFL seasons, the 2020 first-round pick has recorded just one fumble recovery over the last two campaigns. As long as that trend continues, Terrell is a better player in real life than fantasy. Atlanta exercised the fifth-year team option for 2024 on Terrell's rookie deal, so he'll be back next season, though he's slated to be an unrestricted free agent after that.

Terrell (concussion) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. The All-Pro cornerback seems to be trending in the right direction to play this weekend, as he went from logging a limited practice session Thursday to a full workload Friday. Nonetheless, Terrell must clear concussion protocol in order to suit up Sunday, and if he's unable to do so, Dee Alford and Clark Phillips would likely see more work in the Falcons' secondary.

Terrell (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice session, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports. Terrell sustained a concussion early in Sunday's 13-8 win over the Jets. He was unable to return to the game and registered one tackle while playing three defensive snaps. Terrell will continue to progress through the league's five-step concussion protocol ahead of Week 14 against the Buccaneers.

Terrell has a concussion and is out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Jets, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports. The cornerback took a helmet-to-helmet hit from Jets running back Breece Hall earlier in the first half. Terrell made one tackle before exiting. Dee Alford is the next man up on the depth chart.
