The Atlanta Falcons have made a significant move by signing veteran safety Jordan Fuller, a former sixth-round pick who has spent four seasons with the Los Angeles Rams and one with the Carolina Panthers. This signing addresses the team's need for a strong safety following their decision not to re-sign Justin Simmons. Fuller's experience, including being a starter on the Rams' Super Bowl team in 2021, brings depth and leadership to the Falcons' defense, where he will pair with Pro Bowl free safety Jessie Bates.

In the previous season, Fuller played nine games for the Panthers, contributing 54 tackles, one forced fumble, and one pass defended. With 333 career tackles, seven interceptions, and five forced fumbles over five seasons, his addition is expected to bolster the Falcons' secondary significantly. The Falcons have already re-signed cornerback Mike Hughes, and now with Fuller onboard, their focus may shift to upgrading their pass rush ahead of the upcoming NFL draft.
