Former Atlanta Falcons tight end Levine Toilolo took a moment on Friday to thank his former team through twitter after he was released.
“I would like to thank all of my coaches, from Coach Smith to Coach Scelfo who drafted me, to Coach Harman, Coach Quinn, Mr. Dimitroff, Mr. Blank and the entire Atlanta Falcons organization for these past five years! I’ve been blessed to be a part of a first class organization from top to bottom,” Toilolo wrote. “I’m most thankful for my teammates and brothers I’ve had the privilege of competing with. But I’m beyond excited for this new opportunity in my football career and helping a new team win a Super Bowl! It’s been real ATL #RiseUp.”
The 6-foot-8 tight end was drafted in the fourth round (133rd overall) of the 2013 draft. Toilolo played in 79 games and made 57 starts. He caught 74 of 114 targeted passes for 727 yards and seven touchdowns.
