FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — The Atlanta Falcons have signed safety Jordan Fuller, tight end Feleipe Franks, and wide receiver and return specialist Jamal Agnew.

The signings, announced Thursday by the Falcons, reunite Fuller with Falcons second-year head coach Raheem Morris and bring the 27-year-old Franks back to his original NFL team.

Fuller, also 27, started nine games for the Carolina Panthers in 2024 but spent his first four pro seasons with the Los Angeles Rams, including three seasons with Morris as that team’s defensive coordinator. Fuller has seven career interceptions and five forced fumbles and has started 55 of his 57 career games in the league.

Franks signed with Atlanta in 2021 as an undrafted free-agent quarterback, the position he played in college, before moving to tight end. He was with the Falcons through the 2023 season.

Last year for Carolina, he played on offense — making one catch for 12 yards — as well as special teams.
