Posted in The Falcons have come to terms on a three-year extension with defensive end Kroy Biermann. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed.
A 2008 fifth round pick out of Montana in 2008, the 6-foot-3, 260-pound Biermann has 143 tackles, 12.5 sacks and two interceptions, both of which he’s returned for touchdowns, during his 64-game career.
Of Biermann’s 143 tackles, 37 have come on special teams.
Biermann has started 17 games for the Falcons, including a career-high 14 opposite John Abraham during the 2010 season. With last year’s signing of Ray Edwards, Biermann returned to a reserve role, picking up 2.5 sacks and an interception while earning an escalated base salary of $1.2 million in the final year of his four-year, $1.879 million rookie contract.
Biermann was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent on March 13.
