FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — Pass-rush help for the Atlanta Falcons is on the way. Veteran linebacker Dwight Freeney was the talk of the Falcons' training camp on Wednesday, a day after agreeing to a one-year deal with the team. Freeney, who is expected to arrive Thursday, is an important addition to a defense that ranked last in the league in sacks last season. Coach Dan Quinn said Freeney, 36, will play in nickel packages as a pass-rush specialist.
