Falcons sign OL Jason Spriggs, cut RB Tony Brooks-James

The Falcons made the reported Emmanuel Ellerbee signing official just a short time ago, but they also announced another pair of moves we weren’t expecting. The team cut ties with running back Tony Brooks-James and added offensive lineman Jason Spriggs to the roster alongside Ellerbee, bringing two new players to the roster just in time for the start of training camp.

Spriggs is an interesting addition. A second round selection by the Packers back in 2016, he hasn’t come to living up to that draft slot in stints with Green Bay and Chicago, appearing in 44 games over four seasons and starting just 9 of those.
