Jeremy Newberry-C-Falcons Jun. 15 - 5:50 pm et
Falcons signed C Jeremy Newberry.
Entering his 12th year, the 33-year-old played behind Nick Hardwick in San Diego last season. He'll provide veteran insurance for Atlanta at what's likely to be the veteran minimum.

Too bad Newberry's knees aren't what it use to be, although I'm a fan of Heitmann, Newberry was better (when healthy).

I spoke to him a short while ago, he frequents the Niner bar here in San Diego. He's excited about the opportunity. Some of his buddies that are down here that he went to Antioch HS with are a bit bummed, but they look forward to watching him play in ATL. His beach house is already up for sale

33 is still a viable age for the center position. On his knees, not so much, but I'm glad to see he's still kicking around.

The guy is the definition of a true warrior. To be in his 12th season on those knees is a testament to his grit (or maybe lack of intelligence?). I wish him all the best. He sure gave us his all when he was here!
