Report: Falcons working out McDonald, Iloka
Veteran safeties George Iloka and T.J. McDonald are set to have workouts with the Falcons on Tuesday, according to NFL media.
The Falcons are looking to add a safety after Keanu Neal suffered a torn left Achilles in the 27-24 loss to the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday.
Iloka, 29, played for the Bengals (2012-17) and the Vikings (2018). He’s played in 99 NFL games and made 79 starts. Last season, he played in all 16 games and made three starts for the Vikings.
Iloka, who’s 6-foot-4 and 225 pounds, played at Boise State and was drafted in the fifth round by the Bengals in 2012.
McDonald, 28, played for the Rams (2013-16) and the Dolphins (2017-18). He’s played in 75 games, all starts.
McDonald, who’s 6-foot-2 and 215 pounds, was drafted in the third round of the 2013 draft out of USC.
