Falcons' practice squad includes two Super Bowl players

The Atlanta Falcons created a 10-man practice squad that includes defensive lineman Joe Vellano and tight end Joshua Perkins, a couple players who saw time in the Super Bowl.

Vellano and Perkins lead a list that includes wide receiver Marvin Hall, defensive end J.T. Jones, defensive back Marcelis Branch, tackle Daniel Brunskill, wide receiver Deante Burton, running back Jhurell Pressley, nose tackle Taniela Tupou, and tight end Alex Gray.

Gray, an international import from England, does not count against the 10-man roster limit. So technically, the Falcons can add another player.
