Wed Mar 19 16:00:00 UTC 2025: ## Former Rams Safety Jordan Fuller Signs with Atlanta Falcons
**Atlanta, GA** – The Atlanta Falcons have signed former Los Angeles Rams safety Jordan Fuller, according to NFL.com’s Tom Pelissero. The move reunites Fuller with former Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris, adding depth to the Falcons’ secondary.
Fuller, 27, spent the first half of last season with the Carolina Panthers before hitting free agency. While he boasts significant starting experience – 55 career games, including a rookie season where he led the team with 113 tackles – injuries have hampered his recent performance. He missed eight games with the Panthers due to a hamstring injury and was sidelined for the Rams’ playoff run in 2021 and the 2023 season finale due to other injuries. This, coupled with inconsistent performance ratings by Pro Football Focus, likely contributed to a less lucrative free agency market than expected.
Fuller’s signing may signal a shorter-than-expected tenure for four-time All-Pro safety Justin Simmons in Atlanta. While Simmons expressed interest in remaining with the Falcons, Fuller’s arrival provides a younger, potentially more cost-effective complement to Jessie Bates III.
Fuller intercepted three passes in both 2020 and 2023, showcasing his playmaking ability when healthy. A successful and injury-free season in Atlanta could significantly boost his market value in 2026. However, his immediate impact will depend on how he fits into new defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich’s scheme alongside Bates.
