Relevant Links Camp Report: Falcons protective line pass the eye examination hat what Im helping currently: Logan Woodside delighting in Falcons opportunity with fresh eyes Falcons position linebacker Ade Ogundeji on injured book Notes, monitorings from practice Roll phone call: Head instructor Arthur Smith updated the standing of RB Cordarrelle Patterson and DB Mike Hughes on Wednesday, stating both are anticipated to be out for a "couple of weeks" with soft tissue injuries. Smith added that the group will certainly review their standing in the week prior to Week 1 of the season with the hopes that they'll have a "more clear image" in the lead as much as the period opener. Till after that, the expectation would be that Patterson as well as Hughes won't be energetic for the rest of the preseason. "We're not concerned concerning them long term, " Smith included. Other DB Cornell Armstrong - who has missed this week of technique also - is anticipated to return following week, according to Smith. Armstrong won't get involved in Friday's second preseason video game against the Bengals, yet Smith claimed the Falcons are enthusiastic they'll be able to get him back for the Steelers video game next week. Another note to make is that the Falcons were not full go on Wednesday, clothed only in shells and going through plays. Smith said after method it was a day for the players to "take anxiety off the joints" in order to be all set for the Bengals on Friday. A pair lineup upgrade: Prior to the begin of method on Wednesday, the Falcons authorized DL Delontae Scott. After completing his university occupation at SMU, Scott signed as an undrafted freelance with the Green Bay Packers. After being launched by the Packers at the end of training camp in 2021, Scott invested time on the Steelers and also Panthers method teams in 2021 and also 2022 prior to signing with the Falcons on Wednesday. In other lineup news, WR Frank Darby removed waivers on Tuesday as well as changed to injured reserve. Where he Fitz: I am mosting likely to be truthful, I am having a tough time placing TE John FitzPatrick on the 53-man roster right now. But hear me out: It's not that I do not think he'll make the 53-man, due to the fact that I in fact do believe he'll make it. It's that I do not have a specific team that I believe he's healthy 's been with the ones, twos and also 3s throughout camp. We really did not reach see him versus the Dolphins on Friday in spite of the reality that I thought he had an effective pair of days of joint methods in Miami. He likely was held out for something small, though, and also it was just never announced by Smith. Regardless, he's type of been all over the area for me. Even Wednesday during go through, he spent some time on the third as well as 4th team field, yet revolved in with the potential beginners in some red zone job. Once more, I am feeling personally confident in claiming that there's a spot for FitzPatrick on the 53-man roster, however to what extent I'm not yet sure. Shanna Lockwood/ 2023 Atlanta Falcons A person to view: DB Breon Borders is a journeyman through the organization. The Falcons are his 11th group given that joining the NFL as an undrafted free representative in 2017. He's slowly constructing a case for himself to stay in Atlanta, however. Borders is somebody who the Falcons generated for deepness functions in the additional. When Borders has gotten the chance in camp, he's blinked, as well as I'm not simply speaking about his pick-six in Friday's video game against Miami. I am discussing various other circumstances, tipped rounds as well as PBUs in technique, strong, sticky protection, as well. He's somebody that states - out of requirement - that he can detect brand-new systems promptly, as well as with the Falcons defensive back deepness checked early with Jeff Okudah, Mike Hughes as well as Clark Phillips III all working via injuries at numerous points in the last 2 weeks, that depth is essential. Note: Phillips has returned uncreative). It's likewise allowed Borders a chance to make some plays. Friday night's video game will be an additional crucial step for a person like Boundaries that's combating for - perhaps - a technique squad place. Expectations for starters on Friday: The Falcons first string offense and also defense did not play in Miami, but Smith claimed after the video game the expectation is they'll bet the Bengals in the 2nd preseason video game this Friday. Just how much or just how little is to be determined based a lot more so on the circulation of the video game itself than anything. Smith stated on Wednesday that the training personnel has a suggestion of just how much they wish to play the beginners yet it could evolve as the video game does. State for example, Smith claimed, that the crime goes three-and-out on their very first drive. That would not be it for the group. Allow's say they they make an explosive play deal with the 2nd play of a drive. That would not be the only time we see them. "We require the representatives, so it's not just about the play time), " Smith stated. ". We require to perform. We need to really feel the pocket. We need to block. We need to tackle. It's more concerning the reps." 2023 AT-T Training Camp 08.15.23 Take a look as the Atlanta Falcons put in the operate in Flowery Branch throughout the 2023 AT-T Training School. 1/ 24 Atlanta Falcons pass receiver Mack Hollins # 18 throughout AT-T Atlanta Falcons Training Camp at Atlanta Falcons Training Center in Flowery Branch, Ga. on Tuesday, August 15, 2023.
