The Falcons announced three roster moves, placing the team at the 75-man limit mandated by the NFL by Sept. 1.
On a defense where opportunities are more abundant than on the offensive side of the ball, a number of Falcons rookies will have the opportunity to play against the St. Louis Rams.
Defensive end John Abraham had 16.5 sacks in 2008. No other lineman had more than four. The team responded in the offseason through the draft and is focused on generating a deep and aggressive defensive front.
The St. Louis Rams are nearing the end of a rough season. The Falcons have punched a ticket to the playoffs. But the Birds know there's some fight left in Sunday's game and plenty to play for on both sides. More in the Wednesday Notebook.
