Falcons work out speedy veteran WR John Brown

Judging by Sunday’s loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, the Falcons could use a little help within their receiving corps.

While top receiver Calvin Ridley and 2021 first-round draft pick Kyle Pitts are top of the line options, the team doesn’t have a ton of reliability behind those guys outside of Russell Gage, who might be a bit hobbled going forward with an ankle injury.

For that reason and potentially many more, the Falcons worked out veteran receiver John Brown, who is known for his blistering speed. It should be noted that no signing is imminent, per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler.
