Falcons Sign Edge Rusher

Looking for a chance to make his NFL debut.

The Atlanta Falcons have signed edge rusher David Anenih off of the Pittsburgh Steelers practice squad.

Anenih has now been signed to the active roster by two different teams this season, but he has yet to be activated for a game.

However, that chance could finally come with the Falcons, who appear to be taking advantage of their losing season to see what they have with their young players.

The twenty-three-year-old, 6-foot-2, 245-pound edge rusher played in 56 games at Houston from 2017-21 and recorded 20 sacks. He was also first-team all-American Athletic Conference in 2021.

It should be interesting to see what Anenih can do if he is given an opportunity with the Falcons.
