Former Alabama WR Slade Bolden was signed by the Atlanta Falcons Sunday evening after trying out at the team’s rookie minicamp this past week.
Bolden went undrafted in 2022 out of Alabama and was picked up by the Baltimore Ravens as an undrafted free agent. He failed to make the roster following a Hernia injury and was waived after playing just 2 preseason games. Since then, he has been a free agent.
Until Sunday.

Bolden had a solid 3 seasons at Alabama, totaling 68 receptions for 712 yards and 4 touchdowns. His senior year was his best, totaling 412 yards and 3 touchdowns.
And it’s well-known how badly Atlanta needs some help at receiver. Drake London, Scotty Miller and Mack Hollins are the projected starters as of now heading into next season.
Ethan Stone is a Tennessee graduate and loves all things college football and college basketball. Firm believer in fouling while up 3.
