Overview
- Jordan Schultz first reported the agreement, which multiple outlets corroborated as a one-year contract with undisclosed terms.
- Holmes is expected to compete for nickel snaps and provide insurance at slot corner as the Falcons manage Bowman's recovery timeline.
- Across six NFL seasons with the Giants and Raiders, Holmes has appeared in 83 games with 12 starts, primarily in the slot.
- His career totals include four interceptions and 21 passes defensed, with a limited defensive snap share in Las Vegas over the past two years.
- The move follows secondary turnover in Atlanta, which re-signed Natrone Brooks and saw Dee Alford depart for the Bills, with further perimeter additions still possible this offseason.
