The Atlanta Falcons are signing former Tennessee Titans outside linebacker Bud Dupree to a one-year contract worth “up to” $5 million, according to a report from Zach Klein. New Titans general manager Ran Carthon released Dupree earlier this offseason in a cap-clearing move that created $9.3 million in cap space. Dupree’s contract in Atlanta reflects poorly on ex-Titans general manager Jon Robinson.
