Availability
According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, the Atlanta Falcons are signing DT David Onyemata to a three-year, $35-million deal.
Fantasy Impact
Onyemata will pair alongside DT Grady Jarrett to plug up the middle of Atlanta's defense. Onyemata had a down year in 2022 and missed time due to a PED-related suspension, but the athletic interior defender is a solid pass rusher and adds to a Falcons d-line that lacked production in 2022.
New Orleans Saints defensive tackle David Onyemata announced on Instagram that he is facing a multi-game suspension after testing positive for a banned substance.
Fantasy Impact
Onyemata says he never knowingly consumed a banned substance and intends to be "more aware" of any medications or supplements he takes going forward. He had a career year in 2020, amassing one interception, 44 tackles, 10 tackles for loss, 16 quarterback hits, and 6.5 sacks.
