The Falcons love to tinker with their roster throughout the summer, but sometimes those moves are re-runs. That’s the case with the J.J. Wilcox signing, which is a move the Falcons made last summer in the hopes of bolstering their safety depth, only to watch him go down with a season-ending injury that same summer.
Now Wilcox is back, and given that it was reported that he was the frontrunner to be the team’s third safety in 2019, it’s fair to assume the team took a look at their existing safety depth chart and determined they needed Wilcox again.
