Falcons To Sign CB Mike Hughes

Hughes met with the Falcons in recent days and it looks like things went well enough for him to earn an offer from the team.

Hughes, 26, is a former first-round pick of the Vikings back in 2018. He agreed to a four-year, $9,867,494 contract that includes a $5,256,352 signing bonus.

The Vikings traded Hughes to the Chiefs last year for a sixth-round pick, and he became an unrestricted free agent last year before agreeing to a one-year contract worth $3.5 million with the Lions. 

In 2022, Hughes appeared in 16 games for the Lions and recorded 51 tackles, no interceptions and a pass defense.

We had him included in our Top 100 Available 2023 NFL Free Agents list.
