The Atlanta Falcons waived/injured wide receiver Devin Fuller on Thursday after the second-year player tore his ACL on July 28.
Fuller was selected in the seventh round of the 2016 NFL Draft by the Falcons.
Falcons coach Dan Quinn said the team was disappointed Fuller was injured again this season after missing his rookie season with a shoulder injury.
"He worked really hard to come back from the shoulder, so we wish him the best,” Quinn said. “We're bummed for him being injured. But he’s such a good guy, he works really hard, and we're pumped for him to take it wherever he wants to go from here."
If Fuller passes through waivers through Friday night, he will be able to join the Falcons’ injured reserve, but won’t be on the roster until he passes a physical.
