Poe was twice named to the Pro Bowl during his time with the Chiefs, but he is coming off a down year statistically, as he registered just 27 tackles and 1.5 sacks in 2016.
NFL.comย lists Poe at a weight of 346 pounds.
Poe will join a young and talented Falcons defense in 2017 with his primary role being that of a run stopper with Vic Beasley providing the bulk of the pass-rush.
Although Atlanta reached the Super Bowl last season, it ranked just 25th in total yardage allowed and 27th in points allowed.
