Introducing the 2020 Atlanta Falcons postseason roster review

The season is over, and while we’ll be handing out a few superlatives here in the coming days, we’d like to focus more on the meat and potatoes than the pasta salad. That’s an analogy, right?

It’s no great secret that Atlanta’s roster needs significant work, a task for the next front office to tackle with gusto. At the moment, we’ll be looking at the state of the roster with a look back at who did what in 2020, what each position might look like in 2021, and a few guesses at who may or may not return.

To lead us in to the series, here’s the currently signed roster. We’ll start with quarterback tomorrow.
