Falcons Waive TE Marcel Jensen From Practice Squad, Sign TE D.J. Tialavea

The Atlanta Falcons announced Tuesday that they’ve waived TE Marcel Jensen from their practice squad and signed TE D.J. Tialavea to the unit.

The Falcons’ practice squad now consists of:

  1. TE D.J. Tialavea
  2. DB T.J. Heath
  3. WR C.J. Goodwin 
  4. WR Devon Wylie
  5. RB Gus Johnson 
  6. G Ben Garland
  7. LB Stansly Maponga 
  8. NT Joey Mbu
  9. QB Matt Simms 
  10. LB Tyler Starr

Jensen, 25, signed on with the Jaguars as an undrafted free agent out of Fresno State back in May of last year. He was unable to make the team’s 53-man roster coming out of the preseason, but later signed on their practice squad.

The Broncos wound up claiming Jensen off of waivers from the Jaguars shortly after this year’s draft. However, he was among their final roster cuts.

The Falcons signed him to their practice squad at the start of the regular season.

In 2014, Jensen appeared in one came and caught a single pass for eight yards.
