| | ESPN.com: NFL - With Brooking talks off, Kerney next in line |
 | | A few weeks ago, when a Brooking extension was still a possibility, Kerney noted to his teammate: "Hey, man, save some (money) for me." Given the disparity between the Falcons' offer and his own expectations, Brooking told Kerney he had "saved it all" for him. |
 | | Kerney, 25, recorded a career-best 12 sacks in 2001, a breakout season for him after netting only five sacks his first two years. |
 | | He is off to a strong start in 2002, with two sacks in two games, and Kerney is clearly Atlanta's most consistent pass rush threat. |
