— Atlanta Falcons (@AtlantaFalcons) January 13, 2022
Ejiofor, 26, was drafted by the Texans in the sixth round out of Wake Forest in 2018. He’s was entering the final year of his four-year, $2.6 million rookie contract when he was waived with a failed physical back in June.
Ejiofor was placed on injured reserve in 2019 after he suffered a torn Achilles and missed the entire season. Houston once again placed him on injured reserve in 2020 with a torn ACL.
In 2018, Ejiofor appeared in 12 games for the Texans and recorded eight total tackles, one sack, one fumble recovery, and two pass defenses.
