Falcons Training Camp Cuts
Atlanta had to waive just two players to get down to Tuesday's 85-man limit: linebacker George Obinna and offensive lineman Bryce Hargrove. Obinna, who went undrafted in 2020, was signed by the Falcons back in June but failed to make much of an impression at training camp. Meanwhile, Hargrove went undrafted at the 2021 NFL Draft and will have to look elsewhere to make his professional football debut.
