Falcons to try out Sean Harlow at center

Falcons guard Sean Harlow, who played 39 snaps against the Jets, is moving to center this week.

“When you see him at practice today, he’ll be at center,” Falcons coach Dan Quinn said. “He’s played a lot of guard. We’ll move Wes (Schweitzer) over to guard this week and Harlow into center. Having that kind of versatility as an inside player is really important.”

Harlow, who was drafted in the fourth-round (136th) of the 2017 draft, played tackle at Oregon State before being converted to a guard in the NFL.
