Falcons | Justin Blalock restructures deal

In order to free up some salary cap space to fit in Atlanta Falcons CB Asante Samuel's three-year, $18.5 million contract, the team restructured OG Justin Blalock's contract. Before the restructure, Blalock's cap number was $5.3 million for 2012. The Falcons likely shifted some option bonuses around in order to create a more cap-friendly deal that allowed them to pursue Samuel.
