Veteran CB Kelvin Hayden agreed to terms on a one-year contract with the Falcons on Wednesday, according to a league source.
Hayden, who spent six seasons with the Colts, visited the Falcons on Tuesday, capping a long string of visits to teams. Among other teams, Hayden spoke with the Redskins, Bears, Chiefs and Vikings after the Colts released him for salary-cap reasons.
Hayden becomes the second veteran defensive back to sign with the Falcons in two days. On Tuesday, the Falcons signed former Patriots safety James Sanders.
