Maxwell, an original Legion of Boom member, went to back-to-back Super Bowls with Quinn on the Seattle Seahawks, winning Super Bowl XLVIII over the Denver Broncos together. He has since bounced around on two teams in three seasons since leaving Seattle (most recently being released by the Miami Dolphins after just two appearances in 2017) but is still just 29 years old.
As for the Falcons, they are dealing with more struggles on the offensive side, but Maxwell could be a nice add to their talented but inconsistent defense.
