Uhm, contacting FORMER Cardinal players seems entirely plausible for an NFL coach. Especially if he wanted them to come try and make the roster. As the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons, that is his job. Find pros who want to work with the team... former Cardinals are a good starting spot for a former Cardinal coach.
Using that to somehow explain contacting college players who have no way of going pro in August is just really bad, fuzzy logic.
