Jake Long visited the Atlanta Falcons and took what is likely a crucial physical with the team on Tuesday.

Long, the No. 1 overall pick in 2008 with the Miami Dolphins, was released by the St. Louis Rams and is recovering from a torn anterior cruciate ligament.

Long was drafted out of Michigan by Bill Parcells, the father-in-law of current Falcons’ personnel man Scott Pioli.
