Falcons sign Trevor Knight to practice squad
The Falcons signed quarterback Trevor Knight, who was in training camp with the Cardinals, to the practice squad Wednesday.
To make room for Knight, who played at Oklahoma and Texas A&M, the Falcons cut defensive tackle Taniela Tupou.
Knight signed with the Cardinals as an undrafted free agent in May. He was waived Saturday. He was 7-of-28 passing (25 percent) for 87 yards, no touchdowns and one interception during the exhibition season. He had a passer rating of 25.1.
Alek Torgersen, who was the Falcons’ fourth quarterback in the exhibition season, signed with the Redskins.
