The Falcons signed former Auburn cornerback Ryan White on Sunday.

White, 5-foot-10 and 197 pounds, was added to replace David Mims II, who was waived injured on Saturday.

The Falcons roster is now back up to the 90-player limit.

White, who played both cornerback and safety for the Tigers, was originally signed by the Green Bay Packers after the 2014 draft.
