The Atlanta Falcons today announced that they have acquired guard Andy Levitre from the Tennessee Titans in exchange for a sixth round draft pick in 2016, and a future conditional draft pick. 

Levitre, 6-2, 303 pounds, was originally selected by the by the Buffalo Bills in the second round (51st overall) of the 2009 NFL Draft out of Oregon State. He spent four seasons with the Bills, and started all 64 games during those four years. As a rookie in 2009, Levitre started all 16 games and was named to Sporting News' 2009 All-Rookie Team, Pro Football Weekly/Pro Football Writers of America's All-Rookie Team and The Football Outsiders' All-Rookie Team.

In 2011, Levitre was a member of a Bills offensive front that led the NFL in fewest sacks allowed with 23. In 2012, he and the Bills offensive line held opponents to 30 sacks (fifth fewest in the AFC), while blocking for a rushing attack that averaged 138.6 yards per game, which ranked second in the AFC.

In 2013, Levitre signed with the Tennessee Titans as an unrestricted free agent. Levitre started all 32 games during his two year tenure with the Titans. Levitre's 16 starts at left guard in 2014, brought his consecutive starting streak to 96 games—every game since entering the NFL in 2009. His consecutive starts streak ranks first among all NFL guards, and makes Levitre one of only two members of the 2009 NFL Draft class to start all 96 regular season games from 2009 through 2014.
