Falcons add Wetzel back to roster, waive punter Wile

The Falcons added offensive lineman John Wetzel back to the 53-man roster and waived/inured punter Matt Wile on Tuesday.

Wile suffered a right quadriceps injury against Houston on Oct. 6.

Wetzel has been on and off the roster for much of the season as the Falcons have had to juggle four punters through the lineup.

The Falcons also signed tight end Carson Meier to the practice squad.
