The Falcons have made no secret of their desire to add talent to a depleted receiver group, and they’ve made no secret that they’re going to be looking at former Bears after adding ex-Chicago general manager Ryan Pace to their front office. Those worlds collided Tuesday, as the Falcons hosted free agent Damiere Byrd for a visit.
If he signs, Byrd will have the most established track record of any wide receiver on the Falcons roster.
The 29-year-old is fresh off a season where he caught 26 catches for 329 yards and a touchdown as a reserve in Chicago.
