Falcons re-sign Lorenzo Carter to a two-year deal

The Atlanta Falcons have re-signed linebacker Lorenzo Carter to a two-year deal, the team announced on Tuesday morning. Carter, 27, signed with Atlanta as a free agent in 2022 and finished the season with 58 tackles, four sacks and an interception.

Carter should provide some good depth along the edge for the Falcons in 2023. The team hired defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen in an effort to get its pass rush back on track. Atlanta finished with just 21 sacks last season.
