Falcons Reduce Roster To 53

August 30th, 2022 at 3:16pm CST by Sam Robinson

With the deadline for teams to cut their rosters down to 53 players minutes away, the Falcons are the latest team to announce how they got there. Here are the moves Atlanta made to set its roster:

Released:

Waived:

DL Abdullah Anderson
DB Corey Ballentine
WR Stanley Berryhill
S Henry Black
OLB Jordan Brailford
DL Darrion Daniels
WR Frank Darby
TE Tucker Fisk
OL Colby Gossett
DB Matt Hankins
RB Caleb Huntley
WR KeeSean Johnson
OL Ryan Nuezil
RB Qadree Ollison
OL Justin Shaffer
S Teez Tabor
DL Derrick Tangelo
DL Nick Thurman
OL Tyler Vrabel
OL Leroy Watson

Waived/injured:

ILB Dorian Etheridge
FB John Raine

A few of Atlanta’s offseason additions are no longer with the team. Former Arthur Smith Titans charges Firkser and Pruitt — each of whom being with Tennessee during the current Atlanta HC’s run as Titans tight ends coach — leave a young tight end group. It would not surprise if one of the two — if not both — were back, via a belated active-roster return or practice squad stash. The Falcons currently have Kyle Pitts, 2021 UDFA Parker Hesse and sixth-round rookie John FitzPatrick at tight end.

The team also signed Kwiatkoski this offseason, bringing him in along with a few ILB investments. But the former Bears and Raiders starter/depth piece is back in free agency. The Falcons still have Deion Jones rostered, despite trade rumors, and have former first-round Titans pick Rashaan Evans in place as well. The team also drafted Troy Andersen in Round 2 this year.
