Vaughn McClure of ESPN is reporting that the Falcons are expected to re-sign veteran DE Courtney Upshaw but an agreement is unlikely to be in place until next week.
There had been talk that Upshaw was likely to return to Atlanta after he proved to be a valuable and versatile player for the Falcons this past season.
Upshaw, 27, is a former second-round pick of the Ravens back in 2012. He played out his rookie contract with the Ravens before signing a one-year contract with the Falcons back in March of last year.
