The Atlanta Falcons didn’t wait long to find a replacement for offensive lineman Andrew Stueber, who was poached off the practice squad by the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday.
According to team reporter Terrin Waack, the Falcons have signed veteran tight end Armani Rogers to their 16-man practice squad. Rogers played quarterback at UNLV and Ohio before switching to tight end ahead of the 2022 NFL draft.
Despite going undrafted in 2022, Rogers signed with the Washington Commanders as a free agent, appearing in 11 games as a rookie. Rogers recorded five catches for 64 yards.

In 2023, the 26-year-old was hindered due to injuries and eventually waived by the Commanders. Rogers was claimed by the Philadelphia Eagles but waived after the preseason.
The Falcons also designated linebacker Nate Landman to return from the injured reserve list. Landman’s 21-day practice window has been opened meaning he can return at some point over the next three weeks.
