Atlanta Falcons sign veteran WR Geronimo Allison to bolster pass-catching group

The Atlanta Falcons are bringing in yet another veteran receiver to help bolster their pass-catching group, signing Geronimo Allison after a tryout during rookie minicamp over the weekend.

The 6-foot-3 wide receiver spent the first four seasons of his career in Green Bay after going undrafted out of Illinois. He had 89 catches for 1,045 yards and six touchdowns with the Packers.

He then signed with the Detroit Lions in 2020 but opted out of that season due to uncertainties surrounding COVID-19. He returned to the Lions in 2021 but appeared in only three games and didn't record a catch.
