After signing his new contract with the Atlanta Falcons on Tuesday, kicker Matt Bryant had a message for Falcons fans.

“Hey Falcons fans, Matt Bryant here, just signed a deal, excited to be back for a few more years. Ready to get Mercedes-Benz Stadium rockin’. We got a little bit of unfinished business to take care of and that starts this year. We’ll see you guys later,” Bryant said.

Bryant, who will turn 43 on May 29, was set to become an unrestricted free agent on March 14. The Falcons signed Bryant to a three-year, $10.5 million deal that will last through the 2020 season.

In 2017, Bryant was a perfect 38-for-38 on extra points and 39-of-44 on field goals, including going 10-of-11 on field goal attempts over 50 yards.
