FLOWERY BRANCH -- The Falcons signed safety Dashon Goldson to the 53-man roster on Tuesday, after waiving wide receiver J.D. McKissic on Monday.
The Falcons signed veteran wide receiver B.J. Daniels to the practice squad.
The Falcons also worked out safety Earl Wolff (North Carolina State) and safety Floyd Raven (Texas A&M).
With Kemal Ishamel (shoulder) on injured reserve, the Falcons didn't have a back up strong safety behind Keanu Neal.
The Falcons (9-5) are set to face the Panthers (6-8) at 1 p.m. on Saturday at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte.
(The team calls it an ‘unofficial’ depth chart. But if they are releasing it, for our purposes that makes it pretty official.)
