ATLANTA, Ga. – After playing on four teams in three seasons, Norfolk native LaRoy Reynolds has found a home in Atlanta.

Following a 2016 season in which the linebacker appeared in all 16 regular season games and three postseason contents (including Super Bowl 51), the Maury High School alumnus has re-signed with the Falcons. News 3 has learned it’s a one year contract.

“It’s such a great, amazing opportunity to return to Atlanta for another year,” Reynolds told News 3. “God has truly moved in my life and I’m grateful to continue this journey.”

Reynolds, an undrafted free agent out of Virginia, played for the Jaguars and Bears prior to joining the Falcons prior to the 2016 season.
