The Atlanta Falcons claim guard Jordan Walsh off waivers and waive guard Shahbaz Ahmed. The team has also waived/injured nose tackle Chris Mayes.
Walsh was signed as a college free agent following the 2016 NFL Draft out of Iowa. He finished his four-year collegiate career with 38 career starts, seeing time at both guard positions over 46 games played while with the Hawkeyes. Walsh made all 14 starts at right guard as a senior in 2015, earning first team All-Big Ten by league coaches.
Ahmed started at left guard for 12 of 13 games for Temple last season.
