Report: TE Luke Stocker visited the Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons don’t have a ton of experience at the tight end position and reportedly brought in free agent Luke Stocker for a visit on Wednesday, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport.

Considering offensive coordinator Dirk Koetter likes to heavily involve the tight end position, it makes sense that Atlanta would add a veteran to help transition away from Austin Hooper.

You have to wonder if the team will consider kicking the tires on one of the veteran free-agent options still on the market, such as Delanie Walker or Ed Dickson.

Stocker, 32, knows the system and would provide good depth in case of an injury to Hayden Hurst. As a member of the Falcons in 2019, Stocker caught eight passes for 53 receiving yards.
