The Falcoholic Reacts: Which rookie has stood out the most?
For the first time under Terry Fontenot, the Falcons fully dedicated their draft capital towards upgrading the defense. It was the logical move to make following four years of investing top picks at the most prominent offensive positions.

Jalon Walker’s gradual progression gives Falcons’ defense a new dimension
As satisfying as it was for the city of Atlanta to see the Falcons use a first-round pick on a Georgia Bulldog, there was some trepidation about using a premium pick on a player who isn’t a prototypical edge rusher. It’s no secret that the defense has been severely lacking in the pass-rushing department for […]

Falcons cut Ta’Quon Graham, formally sign Zane Gonzalez
The Falcons made the signing of kicker Zane Gonzalez official, which is not a surprise. The corresponding cut, however, is indeed a surprise.

The Falcons haven’t been able to overcome attrition and adversity in 2025
