FLOWERY BRANCH — Former Chicago Bears linebacker Nick Kwiatkoski, who played with the Raiders the past two seasons, is set to sign with the Falcons, according to league-owned NFL media.

Since former Bears general manager Ryan Pace was added to the personnel staff this offseason, several former Chicago players have landed with the Falcons.

Kwiatkoski was drafted in the fourth round of the 2016 draft by the Bears. He started 22 of 57 games played for the Bears. He played in 20 games for the Raiders and made eight starts in 2020. He did not start in eight appearances last season.
