Friday’s minor moves:
Atlanta Falcons
- Signed: WR Chris Blair, DL Albert Huggins, K Matthew Trickett
- Placed on IR: RB Avery Williams (story)
- Released: QB Austin Aune, WR Justin Marshall
New York Giants
- Waived (injury designation): TE Andre Miller
Pittsburgh Steelers
- Released: S Scott Nelson
Trickett’s deal is three years in length, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network (Twitter link). That represents a sizeable commitment considering the Falcons are already set at the kicker position with Younghoe Koo. Trickett will have training camp and the offseason to earn himself an extended look on Atlanta’s practice squad during training camp and the preseason following his five-year college career. He spent time at Kent State and Minnesota, converting 79 of 100 field goal attempts and all but three of his 179 extra point kicks.
