Veteran outside linebacker OBrien Schofield?has agreed to a one-year deal to return to the Atlanta Falcons.Schofield took a physical at the teams facility Wednesday morning and met with the coaches. He is expected to sign the deal later in the day.Its great to be back with the organization, Schofield told ESPN. Im ready to get back on the field and start competing.Schofield, known as a vocal leader, is expected to fill the same strong-side linebacker role he played at the end of last season. Vic Beasley Jr. is the starting Sam linebacker right now, but he moves to edge rusher in nickel situations. Beasley is not known for stopping the run, and Schofield showed the ability to consistently set the edge last season.The Falcons are likely to use Schofield in some pass-rush situations as well, perhaps even as a blitzer. Last year, he had two sacks and was second on the team with 13 quarterback hits. Schofield worked on his pass-rush skills this offseason in Hawaii alongside former Seattle Seahawks teammate Michael Bennett.After two weeks, the Falcons have just one sack. They were last in the league with 19 sacks a year ago.Schofield generated strong consideration from the New England Patriots, New York Jets, Buffalo Bills, New Orleans Saints?and Seahawks during the free-agent process. He said arthritis in his left knee is not a concern, although it cost him a two-year, $8 million contract with the New York Giants in 2014. The 29-year-old pointed to the fact he played in all 16 games last season, with 10 starts, as proof.The addition of Schofield might mean a different role for reserve linebacker Philip Wheeler, currently the backup Sam linebacker. Wheeler could move back to inside linebacker, particularly with rookie starting weak-side linebacker DeVondre Campbell recovering from an ankle injury.The Falcons have to make a corresponding roster move to make room for Schofield on the 53-man roster.Schofield is unsure if hell be active for Monday nights matchup against the New Orleans Saints.

MIAMI BEACH, Fla. -- Miami Marlins pitcher Jose Fernandez had cocaine and alcohol in his system when his boat crashed into a Miami Beach jetty, according to toxicology reports released Saturday.Its not clear whether Fernandez was driving when the boat crashed Sept. 25, killing the 24-year-old baseball star and two of his friends. But Fernandez had a blood-alcohol content level of 0.147, well above Floridas legal limit of 0.08, according to autopsy reports released by the Miami-Dade County Medical Examiners Office.Associate Medical Examiner Kenneth Hutchins listed the cause of death as boat crash for Fernandez, 27-year-old Emilio Jesus Macias and 25-year-old Eduardo Rivero.Each man had suffered blunt force injuries to his head and body, Hutchins wrote.Cocaine use would be out of character for Fernandez, and the toxicology reports raise more questions than they answer about what happened that night, said the Fernandez familys Tampa-based attorney and longtime friend, Ralph E. Fernandez.That leads me to think, could this be an isolated incident? Yes. Could this have been involuntary? Yes. Why do you think theres still a criminal investigation pending? said the attorney, who isnt related to the pitcher.Authorities have interviewed a highly reliable witness who said he was on the phone with Fernandez just before the crash and heard the pitcher giving another person directions about where to steer the boat, he said.If you tell me that hed been drinking, Id say, `So? He wasnt driving -- and he was very careful about that, Ralph Fernandez said.Players with Major League Baseball contracts have been tested for performance-enhancing substances since 2004 and violations are announced publicly, but there is no random testing for drugs such as cocaine and players generally arent suspended for abusing those drugs unless they fail to comply with a treatment program or are convicted for drug use, possession, sale or distribution.Baseball Commissioner Rob Manfred said Fernandezs autopsy report was not even official and declined furthher comment before Game 4 of the World Series.ddddddddddddToxicology reports showed both Macias and Rivero also had alcohol levels below the states legal limit, while Rivero also had cocaine in his system.Chris Royer, a Fort Lauderdale lawyer representing family members of Macias and Rivero, told the Sun Sentinel that his clients had been told about the findings and they would make a statement having taken some time to discuss the reports.Royer did not immediately respond to messages left Saturday by The Associated Press.The bodies had a strong odor of alcohol on them when they were recovered by divers, and investigators also found evidence the boat was speeding when it slammed into the jetty, according to a search warrant affidavit released this week by the Miami-Dade County State Attorneys Office.The affidavit said officials also had recovered a receipt for alcohol from American Social Bar & Kitchen, where the trio had been before the crash.Miami-Dade County Mayor Carlos Gimenez directed the medical examiners office to release the autopsy reports Saturday, a day after The Miami Herald sued the medical examiners office seeking their release.The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission, the state agency investigating the crash, previously refused to release the reports. Gimenez said state officials also refused to join the county as a co-defendant in the Heralds public records lawsuit.The autopsy reports will provide invaluable information to FWC investigators as they conduct a thorough and complete investigation, wildlife commission spokeswoman Susan Smith said in an email.U.S. Coast Guard officials have said theyll examine lighting at the South Beach jetty where the boat crashed.
