Safety William Moore agreed with a five-year contract to stay with the Atlanta Falcons, according to ESPN.

He was expected to make near the high end of the safety market. The top salary for a safety is $8 million per year, which went to the San Diego Chargers’ Eric Weddle last year.

Moore had 75 tackles and four interceptions last season and was a Pro Bowl alternate, even though he missed four games with a hamstring injury.
