According to Howard Balzer, the Falcons brought in five free agents for workouts on Monday including:
- LB Bruce Carter
- LB Corey Nelson
- S Eddie Pleasant
- S Calvin Pryor
- S Keith Tandy
Pleasant, 29, wound up signing on with the Texans as an undrafted free agent out of back in 2012.ย The Texans cut Pleasant coming out of the preseason before adding him to their practice squad.
Houston elected to re-sign Pleasant to a two-year, $2.15 million contract back in 2016 and he wound up finishing out the deal. New England signed him to a contract back in July before releasing him at the start of the regular season.
In 2017, Pleasant appeared in all 16 games for the Texans and recorded 32 tackles, two sacks, an interception, a forced fumble and three pass defenses.
