FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. — The Atlanta Falcons released their Week 17 depth chart on Tuesday.
As a reminder, the depth chart is meant as a helpful guide for the Falcons' prime-time game against the Los Angeles Rams next Monday at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. It is not considered concrete for either the present or future. Personnel decisions can always change.
"I always hate to see the depth chart," Falcons head coach Raheem Morris said in Week 1, "because it just doesn't really tell the whole story, because sometimes people start in different roles and different phases of the game and just because it's not the first play of the game, doesn't mean you're not necessarily a starter or have a starting role."
Below is a look at the entire depth chart before the Falcons-Rams game kicks off on ESPN and CBS Atlanta at 8:15 p.m. ET.
Changes include last week's transactions: the release of wide receiver Jamal Agnew, the placement of wide receiver KhaDarel Hodge on injured reserve and the signing of cornerback C.J. Henderson and safety Jammie Robinson to the active roster.
