Falcons sign LB Andre Smith Jr. to 53-man roster

The Falcons signed linebacker Andre Smith Jr. to 53-man roster and released offensive lineman Isaiah Prince, the team announced on Wednesday afternoon.

Smith has been on the team’s practice squad all season and his signing was expected after the team placed Troy Andersen on the injured reserve list Tuesday. Smith played well in the preseason and is now officially on the roster.
