South Atlanta News

Atlanta will suit up for its second preseason game on Saturday afternoon against the Baltimore Ravens after finishing the week in a flourish.

There is a renewed sense of optimism surrounding the Falcons' upcoming season after the team agreed to terms with the New England Patriots to send a third-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft in exchange for Pro Bowl pass rusher Matthew Judon and reportedly signed Pro Bowl safety Justin Simmons. In the span of 24 hours, Atlanta addressed a couple of key questions about the defensive side of the ball and bolstered its ranks after impactful injuries.

Saturday will provide the chance to evaluate the team's roster depth. The deadline for teams to pare their rosters down to the league-mandated 53 players arrives on Aug. 27, so every snap in this game is critical.
