Falcons Sign DL Taniela Tupou & Rookie WR Reggie Davis

The Atlanta Falcons announced that they have signed free agent DL Taniela Tupou and undrafted WR Reggie Davis.

Tupou, 24, wound up signing on with the Seahawks as an undrafted free agent out of Washington back in May of last year. He signed a three-year, $1.62 million contract with the Seahawks but was cut as the team trimmed down to 53 players.

Seattle later re-signed him shortly after clearing waivers.

In 2016, Tupou appeared in one game for the Seahawks but did not record any statistics.

Davis, 23, is an undrafted free agent out of Georgia that signed on with the Falcons shortly after his tryout at the team’s rookie minicamp.

He primarily appeared as a return specialist for the Bulldogs in addition to playing wide receiver.

During his four-year college career at Georgia, Davis recorded 47 kickoff returns for 998 yards (21.2 YPR) and 34 punt returns for 251 yards (7.4 yPR) and scored one touchdown. As a receiver, Davis caught 38 passes for 618 yards receiving (16.3 yPC) for two touchdowns.
