Falcons sign veteran wide receiver to practice squad

The Atlanta Falcons have signed wide receiver K.J. Osborn to their 16-man practice squad, the team announced on Monday afternoon. Osborn worked out for the Falcons on Friday and now takes the final spot on the team's practice squad ahead of Week 13.

The 28-year-old was originally selected by the Minnesota Vikings in the fifth round of the 2020 NFL draft. Over his first five NFL seasons, Osborn recorded 165 receptions, 1,902 receiving yards and 16 touchdowns in 67 games (34 starts).

Osborn went over 500 receiving yards in three consecutive seasons (2021-2023) for the Vikings, but he hasn't had as much success over the last two years for the New England Patriots and Washington Commanders.
