Sanu set to visit the Falcons

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — Former Cincinnati wide receiver Mohamed Sanu is set to visit the Falcons, according to coach Dan Quinn.

Sanu has been one of the most productive of the free agent candidates after being selected in the third-round of the 2012 draft out of Rutgers. The Falcons have an opening after releasing Roddy White, the franchise’s all-time leading receiver.

Sanu has played in 57 games and has made 34 starts.

He has 152 catches for 1,793 yards and 11 touchdowns. In a 24-10 win over the Falcons on Sept. 14, 2014, the college quarterback tossed a 50-yard to running back Ben Tate on a flanker reverse-pass. He also had a 76-yard touchdown reception in that game.
