The Falcons are signing yet ANOTHER former Bears player
The Falcons have signed defensive lineman Abdullah Anderson, the team announced Sunday.
Anderson, 26, played three games for Green Bay last season. He made two tackles, while playing 49 snaps on defense and 12 on special teams.
The Bears signed Anderson as an undrafted free agent out of Bucknell in 2018. He played six games for Chicago in 2019 and made four tackles and a sack.
This is crazy. The Falcons continue to sign former Bears players. It seems like Ryan Pace is trying to build the Atlanta Bears...
Let me remind you that Pace was hired as the Senior personnel executive for the Falcons a few months ago.
First of all, here is a list of players that went from the Bears to the Falcons. Keep in mind that all of those players played under Ryan Pace in Chicago.
Germain Ifedi
Damiere Byrd
Willie Beavers
Rashaad Coward
Mike Davis
Cordarrelle Patterson
Teez Tabor
James Vaughters
Elijah Wilkinson
Damien Williams
The last two Bears GMs are both working for the falcons right now:
Ryan Pace (Senior personnel executive)
Phil Emery( (Scout)
Dave Ragone( (He was the Bears' Passing game coordinator in 2020) (He is now the offensive coordinator for the Falcons)
Charles London( (He was the Bears' Running backs coach from 2018 to 2020) (He is now the Falcons' Quarterbacks coach)
Michael Pitre( (He was the Bears running back coach last season and he is now the Falcons' RB coach)
Ted Monachino( (He was the Bears' Senior defensive assistant & outside linebackers coach in 2019 and he is now the Falcons outside linebackers coach)
Jon Hoke( (He was the Bears' Defensive backs coach from 2009 to 2014 and he is now the Falcons' secondary coach)
When you look at the actual number of persons that switched from one organization to another, it's actually mind-boggling! I guarantee that there are no other teams with as many persons linked...
