Deante Burton and Jeff Overbaugh Earlier
?http://www.falconsauthorizedshops.com/authentic-brandon-fusco-jersey in the day we received word that the Falcons had signed defensive end Steven
Means and linebacker Corey Nelson to the active roster, and as the afternoon
wears on the moves continue to roll in. The Falcons have signed former Tampa Bay
Buccaneer Keith Tandy, presumably to add some depth and intrigue to the strong
safety spot in the wake of Keanu Neal’s injury. Tandy is a familiar face in
Atlanta, as he spent six seasons in the Bucs’ defensive backfield before being
released prior to this season. He’s a sturdy enough player
Logan Paulsen Jersey , with his highlight season coming in 2016 where he tallied 46 tackles and four interceptions. Keith Tandy is an interesting
addition to a safety position where the options for Keanu Neal’s replacement
continue to evolve, and he was well-known during his stint in Tampa Bay for
being a useful special teamer. He’ll be the fourth safety in Atlanta, more than
likely. In corresponding moves, the Falcons also waived cornerback Deante Burton
and long-snapper Jeff Overbaugh, and assigned wide receiver Christian Blake to
the practice squad. Blake was an undrafted free agent from Northern
Illinois
Youth Keanu Neal Jersey , where he reeled in 84 passes for 979 yards and six touchdowns.With Keanu Neal’s season-ending injury and Deion Jones’ ailing
foot, the Falcons are clearly not content heading into the week without some
added depth. We’ll see how the team plans to utilize Tandy’s services on Sunday.
The Atlanta Falcons disputed a report that running back Devonta Freeman will be
out for as long as three weeks with a knee injury.Coach Dan Quinn said Monday
that Freeman is listed as day to day.Freeman injured his right knee in a Week 1
loss to the Philadelphia Eagles and didn't play in Sunday's 31-24 victory over
the Carolina Panthers.ESPN reported that Freeman will miss two to three weeks
with a contusion, which would rule him out of next weekend's NFC South matchup
against the New Orleans Saints and possibly a Sept. 30 game against the
Cincinnati Bengals."I'm not sure where that report came from, but it certainly
didn't come from us," Quinn said.The coach remained vague about Freeman's
possible return
Youth Austin Hooper Jersey , however, having said previously that hopes it's not a long-term problem."When Devonta can (have) the same explosion he
plays with, we'll let him do his thing," Quinn said. "Until that part comes,
we're not going to put a timetable on it."The Falcons (1-1) certainly didn't
miss Freeman in their win over the Panthers. Tevin Coleman rushed for 107 yards
on 16 carries

McKinley (groin), offensive guard Andy Levitre (elbow) and backup defensive end
Derrick Shelby (groin).McKinley's injury was not announced during the game, but
he was not on the field in the closing minutes.Quinn said he would have an
update on all three players Wednesday, as required under NFL rules.
