The Falcons announced three roster moves, placing the team at the 75-man limit mandated by the NFL by Sept. 1.
A host of Falcons grew up or played college football in the state of Georgia, meaning they didn't have to travel far to continue their football career as members of the NFL.
It's often forgotten, but games can be decided on big plays and field position. Special teams anyone? The Falcons will open camp with plenty of opportunities for younger players but a core group of special teamers also return.
The Falcons added 10 rookie free agents and made additional roster moves on Tuesday.
