Tight end Luke Stocker, who split last season with Tampa Bay and Tennessee, agreed to a two-year contract with the Falcons on Thursday.

Stocker, who will turn 31 in July, was drafted in the fourth-round of the 2011 draft by Tampa Bay.

He’s played in 98 NFL games and made 68 starts. He’s never caught more than 16 passes in a season and is considered more of a blocking tight end at 6-foot-5 and 253 pounds.
