The Atlanta Falcons have yet to officially announce rookie Desmond Ridder as the starting quarterback, but it appears the team has added another QB to the 53-man roster.
As reported by ESPN’s Field Yates, the Falcons signed veteran quarterback Logan Woodside off of the Titans’ practice squad on Saturday.

Woodside, 27, was selected by the Cincinnati Bengals in the seventh round of the 2018 draft out of Toledo. He has appeared in 11 games over the last two seasons for the Titans, but he’s never started a game. For his career, Woodside has completed 1-of-3 passes for seven yards.
Woodside’s signing is a bit of a surprise, and you have to wonder how it coincides with the recent reports of Ridder taking over as Atlanta’s starting quarterback. The team has customarily dressed two quarterbacks this season, although TE Feleipe Franks is also a former QB.
The Falcons will get back to work next week in preparation for their NFC South showdown against the Saints in Week 15.
