The Atlanta Falcons will reportedly have full attendance for mandatory minicamp on Tuesday.

Star receiver Julio Jones, franchise-tagged defensive tackle Grady Jarrett, pass-rusher Vic Beasley, and linebacker Deion Jones all reported Monday after skipping voluntarily organized team activities, sources told Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Earlier in June, owner Arthur Blank said he wants the two Joneses and Jarrett "to be Falcons for life."

Julio Jones is under contract for another two years, but he was promised a new extension after the team temporarily eased his contract concerns last offseason by adjusting his 2018 salary.

The wideout's current deal sees him owed $9.6 million for 2019 and $11.4 million for 2020. Meanwhile, Odell Beckham Jr. paces the receiver market with a deal that averages $18 million per year; Jones' annual mark of $14.25 million sits 12th in the league.

Jones led the league last season with 1,677 on 113 catches, and he tied for the second-most touchdowns of his career with eight.

Meanwhile, Jarrett was hit with a $15.2-million tag after racking up six sacks and 52 total tackles in 2018.

Beasley's playing on the fifth-year option in his rookie deal and will look to recapture his 15.5-sack form from 2016 after producing just 10 quarterback takedowns combined over the last two years.

Deion Jones, a 2017 Pro Bowler, is returning to a defense that badly needs him after he missed most of last season with a foot injury. He'll be an unrestricted free agent in 2020.
