Posted August 31, 2016 7:00 am
ATLANTA (AP) - The Atlanta Falcons have placed rookie wide receiver Devin Fuller on injured reserve with a shoulder injury and have re-signed fullback Will Ratelle.
Fuller was a seventh-round draft choice from UCLA. He had five catches for 66 yards and one touchdown in three preseason games. He hurt his shoulder in last week's loss to Miami.
Ratelle initially signed with Atlanta as a college free agent from North Dakota following the NFL draft. He had one reception for 9 yards in the preseason before being released. He will provide added depth for Thursday night's final preseason game against Jacksonville.
