The Falcons have elected to lock up a fair number of their own free agents. With new deals for right tackle Kaleb McGary, punter Bradley Pinion, outside linebacker Lorenzo Carter, and fullback Keith Smith among the re-signings, the Falcons clearly believe some key contributors for 2022 can be factors on an improved 2023 squad.
That said, there are still...

The Falcons lined up their splashes, but there’s still work to do.
These Falcons don’t want to go into the 2023 NFL Draft with holes on the roster, which means the quiet days we’ve seen since Atlanta’s early splashes in free agency won’t last. The first wave of this Falcons free agency period is over, however, and the majority of their big splashes in free agency have ended with it.
That’s not a criticism or a...

Coming off a career year, Hollins will land in Atlanta with a chance at a major role.
We’ve been waiting for the Falcons to add to a pretty thin wide receiver depth chart, given that the team has basically zero proven options beyond Drake London. On Sunday night, it appears they’ve added a starting option, with former Raider Mack Hollins reportedly set to sign with Atlanta.
The report comes from Taylor Vippolis, a reporter with Inside Carolina, which...
