Report: Atlanta Falcons signing former Cowboys DT Terrell McClain

We knew the Atlanta Falcons were going to add a defensive tackle after bringing in only Deadrin Senat to replace multiple losses at tackle, headlined by Dontari Poe. Former Dallas Cowboys and Washington Redskins lineman Terrell McClain was cut lose after the draft, and quickly became one of the hottest names available.

Per Jordan Schultz, Atlanta won the sweepstakes for McClain.

McClain signed a four-year, $21 million deal with Washington, where he played more 3-4. It didn’t work out well, and the team prioritized replacing him during the draft.
