  • Offseason In Review: Atlanta Falcons

    Headshot for Tyler Allgeier

    Winners of seven games in four of the past five seasons, the Falcons have both overachieved talent-wise — during the Arthur Smith years, at least — while largely hovering off the radar. After two clear transition years that brought substantial dead money into the equation, the Falcons’ Smith-Terry Fontenot operation has moved to a point […]

  • Taylor Heinicke Solidifies Status As Backup

    Headshot for Taylor Heinicke

    The Atlanta Falcons quarterback, Taylor Heinicke, had a strong performance in a recent game, demonstrating why the team signed him as a backup for Desmond Ridder in the offseason. Heinicke completed 13 of his 21 passes, throwing for 162 yards. He also made a 28-yard completion to J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, setting up the only touchdown of the game for the Falcons. While Heinicke still needs to synchronize with his new teammates, he proves to be a reliable backup for Ridder.

    Headshot for Taylor Heinicke

    Atlanta Falcons quarterbacks Desmond Ridder and Taylor Heinicke are reportedly struggling with deep passes. According to Adnan Ikic of Falcoholic, neither signal-caller has connected on a deep shot through three days of training camp. Last season, Marcus Mariota struggled to connect with Kyle Pitts and Drake London on chunk plays, so it's a worrisome development. Ridder could have sneaky fantasy value with rushing upside and high-level weapons, but the second-year player likely won't have a ton of job security if he struggles out of the gate.
