Falcons LB Lofa Tatupu out for the season again

Upon further review, signing Mike Peterson was a sign.

Falcons coach Mike Smith announced Tuesday that linebacker Lofa Tatupu will miss the entire season with a pectoral injury suffered in the weight room last week.

Dan Morgan, Act II.

Not that surprising, but I still can't believe that the Failclowns had him presumably slotted as a starter at MLB.

Well he was only guaranteed $800K, so the Failclowns won't be overly hurt by this in terms of their cap situation.

Yep... that signing never made sense to me. Middle Linebacker is probably not the position that a team in win now mode should be taking a step back.

Lofa was a great player, but it might be time to hang it up.
