@Devonnsha @AtlantaFalcons @UFLDefenders @brandon_dorlus @TheHand54 The tape on Devonnsha Maxwell is a blocked field goal that sealed a win. Three years without a snap, then a game-deciding play the moment he got another one. That's the whole case for a 15% shot.

For 35 days, the #Falcons' own stadium is called #Atlanta Stadium per FIFA.

Real grass replaced the turf. The #WorldCup semifinal is July 15, the same day @kylepitts__ tag deadline hits.

Blank built @MBStadium to be more than his franchise's home but to be a world destination.

20 yrs & still in the building. @DjShockley3 was selected by the #Falcons in the 2006 draft. He was the 1st UGA player drafted by Atlanta since 1994 & never appeared in a regular season game due to a torn ACL. Now he covers the team weekly for #FOX 5 & https://t.co/2yKwNAwVuH.

Kevin Stefanski expects Xavier Watts to take a leap this year. Jeff Ulbrich thinks he's "going to be a star."

Watts, fresh off nabbing the second-most interceptions by a rookie in Falcons history, enters this fall with internal buzz.

“He’s locked in.”

@keelanmarion1 @AtlantaFalcons @univmiami The tape on Keelan Marion speaks for itself. A 96-yard kickoff return TD against @Utah_Football , via #ESPN. #Atlanta's crowded WR room might not need another receiver. It might need exactly this.

#50: @keelanmarion1 , WR, #Miami.

[Sports Business Journal @SBJ]

The NFL issued $196M of new debt in late 2025 to fund stadium construction projects, earning an A+ debt rating from Fitch 🏈

The debt came through the league’s G-4 and G-5 stadium finance program, though Fitch did not identify which teams tapped the loans.

Madden players take note: our rookie corner just outgraded the @Raiders No. 1 overall pick.

@AvieonTerrell 75 overall beats @fernandomendoza 's 74 in @EAMaddenNFL 27. @EASPORTS clearly watched the same #Clemson tape as the @AtlantaFalcons & Ian Cunningham.

@riley_mahlman @AtlantaFalcons @BadgerFootball 's best run-blocking tackle. That's the kind of detail work an #NFL camp actually rewards.

#48: @riley_mahlman, OT, #Wisconsin.

Signed as a UDFA after this year's draft. 1 of 3 offensive linemen @AtlantaFalcons added that weekend.

Bleacher Report named him the #Falcons' "most exciting" undrafted signing of the class. Looking foward to seeing what he can DO! 35%.

#47: @LaCaleLondon44, DL, #WesternIllinois.

Two standard elevations in Weeks 6 & 7 of 2023 turned into a fumble recovery and enough tape to earn a spot on the 53-man roster that October.

Two years later, he closed 2025 with sacks in back-to-back Weeks 15 & 18. 85%.

#46: @DrakeLondon_, WR, #USC.
