Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
ATLANTA, March 8 (UPI) -- Wide receiver Joe Horn, released by the New Orleans Saints last week, has signed a contract with the Atlanta Falcons.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported Thursday that the agreement covered at least three years with $2 million in salary guaranteed.
Horn, 35, was second on the Saints' all-time reception and receiving yardage list.
Some of the biggest successes have come against Atlanta. Over the last six seasons, he's caught 67 passes for 1,070 yards and five touchdowns versus the Falcons.
Horn has been selected to the Pro Bowl four times. He was drafted by Kansas City in the fifth round of the 1996 NFL draft and saw limited playing time until he signed with New Orleans in 2000. He was released by the Saints March 1 after refusing to restructure his contract.
He has 576 career receptions for 8,501 yards and 57 touchdowns.
