Atlanta tied for the most 30-plus year old players in the NFL

If you're looking for evidence that the Falcons are not done with their roster makeover, here's ample evidence: They're tied with two other teams for the most players over 30.

Teams with the most players 30+ (Ravens, Steelers & Falcons 12,
Patriots & Lions 11... Cardinals, Bills, Lions, Vikings & Jets 10) — Mike Jurecki (@mikejurecki) May 25, 2016

Ideally, most of these players would be excellent, but in the case of the Falcons, only two are truly invaluable. Here's the full list.

  • Matt Bryant, 40
  • Jonathan Babineaux, 34
  • Matt Schaub, 34
  • Chris Chester, 33
  • Devin Hester, 33
  • Matt Ryan, 31
  • Jacob Tamme, 31
  • Philip Wheeler, 31
  • Charles Godfrey, 30
  • Andy Levitre, 30
  • Alex Mack, 30
  • Eric Weems, 30
  • If your players over 30 aren't amazing, they should at least be guys who aren't core players.
