Falcons signed No. 48 overall pick CB Avieon Terrell to a four-year contract.

17 May 2026

Terrell becomes the lowest-drafted player in NFL history to receive a fully-guaranteed deal. The brother to Falcons corner A.J. Terrell, Avieon Terrell put together a solid career during his time at Clemson, playing almost exclusively on the outside while forcing three interceptions and breaking up another 17 passes. He’s expected to earn an early starting role on the perimeter in his rookie season and should help improve a defense that was already 13th in net YPA allowed (5.8) last season.
