Falcons sign long snapper Beau Brinkley

With the exception of a short injured stint, Josh Harris has been the only long snapper the Falcons have known since 2012. When the Chargers signed him away this offseason, the team needed a capable replacement and signaled they’d be going after a veteran.

As The Falcoholic’s columnist and Locked On Falcon’s host Aaron Freeman predicted, that man will be former Titans long snapper Beau Brinkley. The veteran took over the job in Tennessee in 2012 and held it until partway through the 2020 season, spending last year bouncing between the practice squads of the Lions, Cardinals and Chargers, and will hope to hold down the fort in Atlanta for the entire 2022 season at minimum.
