Former Falcon Jonathan Babineaux reacts to new Falcon wearing No. 95

After wearing No. 95 for the Atlanta Falcons for 12 seasons, former Falcons’ defensive tackle Jonathan Babineaux had some thoughts about former Dallas Cowboys’ defensive end Jack Crawford wearing his old number.

Crawford recorded 43 tackles and 9.5 sacks in two seasons with the Oakland Raiders and two with the Cowboys.

Babineaux— currently an unrestricted free agent— commented on the photo of Crawford in a No. 95 jersey from the Falcons' Instagram page with a "thinking face" emoji.

In his 185 games in a Falcons jersey, Babineaux racked up 292 tackles, 27 sacks, four interceptions, 10 forced fumbles and two touchdowns off fumble recoveries.
