The Atlanta Falcons announced on May 7 that they have signed 14 undrafted free agents.

This move comes after the conclusion of the 2026 NFL Draft, which ended Saturday in Pittsburgh. The Falcons added six rookies through the seven-round draft and have now expanded their roster with these additional signings.

According to the team, “The Atlanta Falcons have signed 14 undrafted free agents, the team announced Thursday.”

The signing of these players provides more competition and depth as the team prepares for upcoming training camps and preseason activities. The addition of undrafted talent is a common practice among NFL teams seeking to discover overlooked prospects who can contribute during the season.

The Atlanta Falcons compete in the National Football League’s NFC South division and are based in Atlanta, Georgia, according to the official website. The franchise began as an expansion team in 1965 and has advanced to the Super Bowl twice—in 1998 and again in 2016—according to information from their official website.
