FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — The Atlanta Falcons have added two tackles, one for each side of the ball.

The team announced Wednesday it signed offensive tackle Jaryd Jones-Smith and defensive tackle Prince Emili.

Jones-Smith has been in the NFL since 2018, first signing with the Houston Texans as an undrafted free agent, but only claims playing time from 2020-21.

In 2020, Jones-Smith was with the Las Vegas Raiders and appeared in three games, taking 14 snaps on special teams. The 6-foot-7, 320-pound tackle spent the 2021 season with the Baltimore Ravens and appeared in another three games, this time taking two offensive snaps and 13 special teams snaps.

Jones-Smith's last stop in the league came in 2023 as a member of the Washington Commanders' practice squad.

Jones-Smith has also spent time in the XFL/UFL as recently as earlier this year with the St. Louis Battlehawks.
