AARON STECKER RUMORS

Amidst free agency, the draft, my interview with Jonathan Goodwin, and undrafted rookie signings, Aaron Stecker's retirement last week got lost in the shuffle. I did want to give the man his due, though, because while he was never a superstar in the league, he was always a very valuable role player. Stecker was a special teams captain and stalwart, but he was also a versatile back...

To make room for running back Aaron Stecker, the Falcons placed rookie safety William Moore on the injured reserve. Moore had been sidelined most recently with a hamstring injury. Moore was a second round pick for the team this past April, and marks the second of this year’s draft class to wind up on the injured [...]

ESPN’s Pat Yasinskas reports that the Falcons will add free agent running back Aaron Stecker to the roster today. Stecker is a 9-year veteran that has spent the last five seasons with the New Orleans Saints. Pro Football Talk reported last week that the team had worked out Stecker among other free agent running backs. The [...]

This article claims Aaron Stecker has caught on with the Falcons just in time for their Monday Night Football match up this weekend against the Saints. Eerie timing? Forget about it. This is the oldest trick in the book, and the Falcons took the opportunity of a banged up backfield to pick Stecker's brain about the Saints playbook.
