Former Falcons All-Pro receiver Julio Jones signs with division rival Tampa Bay

Former Atlanta Falcons great Julio Jones will once again call the NFC South home, following a one year hiatus from the division, after he signed a one-year contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers just ahead of the start of training camp on Tuesday.

Jones joins the Bucs after spending the 2021 season in Tennessee, following a trade which sent him away from Atlanta last offseason.

Julio Jones spent the first 10 years of his career as an Atlanta Falcon, after the franchise moved up 20 spots to take him in the top 10 of the 2011 NFL Draft.
