Atlanta signed Mack to a reserve/future contract Wednesdsay, Terrin Waack of the Falcons' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Mack didn't play this season, but he'll get an opportunity to compete for a spot on Atlanta's 53-man roster for 2024. He's big for a wideout but probably lacks the speed and explosiveness to credibly threaten defenses downfield.
