What happened: Tua Tagovailoa is dealing with back tightness. A knee injury has also kept another Atlanta quarterback out of practice.

Why it matters: Atlanta's quarterback competition cannot proceed at full strength while both contenders are limited. The addition preserves practice reps as training camp opens.

What to watch: Watch Tagovailoa's participation and whether the reported signing becomes official.
