Falcons Sign Tony Gonzales to a One-Year Extension

Tony Gonzales signs a one year $7 million extension.
The Falcons have announced that they have signed tight end Tony Gonzales a one-year extension worth $7 million. According to a league source, Gonzales's contract was set to expire at the end of the 2011 season, so it was imperative another deal was created. Ever since Gonzales was traded from the Chiefs to the Falcons he has scored 19 touchdowns with his 232 receptions. Gonzales trails only Jerry Rice on the all time NFL receptions list with 1,148 catches, and has a total of 95 touchdown catches. He has seven touchdown receptions on the year, and will be interesting to see how much energy and durability Gonzales will have left for yet another season.
