According to multiple reports, the Atlanta Falcons have officially signed Tennessee Titans free agent linebacker Rashaan Evans to a one-year contract. Evans recently visited the Falcons, and the two sides have now officially reached a deal.
The Falcons were expected to be in the market for a new starting linebacker after Foyesade Oluokun signed a lucrative contract with the Jacksonville Jaguars. Evans now reunites with Falcons head coach Arthur Smith, who spent the first three seasons of Evans’ professional career on Tennessee’s staff, first as their tight end coach, and later as the offensive coordinator.
