The Atlanta Falcons announced Tuesday that they’ve signed DE A.J. Jefferson to a contract and waived WR Bra’Lon Cherry.

Jefferson, 24, wound up signing a three-year, $1.66 million contract with the Rams as an undrafted free agent out of Mississippi State back in May. He stands to make base salaries of $465,000 and $555,000 over the first two years of the contract.

Unfortunately, the Rams cut Jefferson loose a few weeks ago.

Cherry, 22, wound up signing on with the Titans as an undrafted free agent out of North Carolina State a few months ago.
