The Atlanta Falcons have added another piece to their secondary, signing veteran cornerback Tre Flowers to a one-year deal on Monday. The 27-year-old spent the last season and a half with the Cincinnati Bengals after playing the first three and a half years of his career for the Seattle Seahawks.
Flowers joins former teammate Jessie Bates III in Atlanta’s new-look secondary. The Falcons recently traded for Jeff Okudah, who should compete with Flowers for the No. 2 cornerback spot alongside A.J. Terrell.
