Falcons old friend signs free agent deal with Titans
Jason Getz-USA TODAY Sports

A Falcons old friend has signed a free agent deal. Marlon Davidson is returning to Tennessee after signing with the Titans last season, per the team’s official Twitter.

The former second-round pick actually joined the Titans’ practice squad last season ahead of the two club’s Week 8 contest after being released by the 49ers.

Davidson did end up getting some burn, appearing in five games, including three starts for the Titans, putting up 10 tackles, two for loss, and one sack.

The former Falcons defender was dealt a difficult hand in Atlanta. He appeared in 19 games over two seasons, eventually landing on the injured reserve at the start of the 2022 campaign.

Constantly dealing with injuries, Marlon Davidson was never able to catch on, but he should have a good shot contributing in Tennessee this season. The Titans needed to add to their defensive line, and it’s wide open behind Jeffery Simmons, T’Vondre Sweat, and Sebastian Joseph-Day.

The Falcons, on the other hand, completely revamped their defensive front, adding three draft picks — Ruke Orhorhoro, Bralen Trice, and Bradon Dorlus — as well as re-signing Kentavius Street and Eddie Goldman.
