The Atlanta Falcons have signed linebacker Storey Jackson, the team announced on Wednesday.

Jackson, a former undrafted free agent, began his NFL career on the Cleveland Browns practice squad in 2022. During his rookie season, he appeared in one game but did not record any statistics. His 15 snaps were all played on special teams.

In 2023, Jackson played for the Arlington Renegades in the XFL. He participated in 10 games as a linebacker and accumulated 41 total tackles, including two tackles for loss.

In conjunction with signing Jackson, the Falcons released punter Ryan Sanborn, an undrafted rookie. Sanborn made his exhibition debut during the Falcons' preseason loss to the Miami Dolphins last Friday, punting nine times for a total of 415 yards. He averaged 46.1 yards per punt and landed two within the 20-yard line.
