Falcons Sign Courtney Roby

Nov 28, 2014 7:30 AM

The Atlanta Falcons have signed Courtney Roby.

Roby (6-0, 189) did not play last season after being cut by New Orleans in training camp. Prior to that, he did little as a receiver, recording 21 of his 25 career catches in 2005 during his rookie season at Tennessee, where he was a third-round pick out of Indiana. 

Roby was most valuable as a kick returner, averaging 24.9 yards on 121 returns during his career.

Jerry Rice Jr. Signs With Washington

Sep 22, 2014 7:04 PM

Washington has signed Jerry Rice Jr., an undrafted rookie wide receiver that played collegiately at UCLA and UNLV.

Rice made appearances at minicamps with the Baltimore Ravens and San Francisco 49ers this offseason.

“I’m my own person, my own individual,” he told the 49ers’ Web site in May. “Obviously, I have his DNA too, so there’s some similarities. But in the end I am Rice Jr., not Rice Sr., and it’s time to make my own name.”
