Falcons Sign 16 Undrafted Free Agents
The Falcons agreed to sign with 16 undrafted college free agents on Monday. Here’s the full breakdown of Atlanta’s eight new offensive players, seven new defenders, and one long snapper:
- Parker Baldwin, FS (San Diego State)
- Shawn Bane, WR (Northwest Missouri)
- Yurik Bethune, LB (Alabama A&M)
- Lanard Bonner, OT (Arkansas State)
- Rashard Causey, CB (Central Florida)
- Tre’ Crawford, LB (Alabama-Birmingham)
- Devon Johnson, OT (Ferris State)
- Kahlil Lewis, WR (Cincinnati)
- Durrant Miles, LB (Boise State)
- Chandler Miller, C (Tulsa)
- Del’Shawn Phillips, LB (Illinois)
- Jaelin Robinson, OT (Temple)
- Jayson Stanley, CB (Georgia)
- Kyle Vasey, LS (Penn State)
- CJ Worton, WR (Florida International)
- Olamide Zaccheaus, WR (Virginia)
Stanley, a wide receiver at Georgia, will aim to show his stuff as a cornerback for the Falcons. The 6’2″, 207-pounder didn’t see a ton of playing time with the Bulldogs, but the Falcons are curious to find out whether his athletic skills can translate to success on the other side of the ball.
