The Falcons began the process of trimming the roster to the mandatory 75 players before heading into the final preseason game by waiving five players today: wide receiver David Glidden, defensive end Efe Obada, fullback Will Ratelle, cornerback Jordan Sefon, and guard Jordan Walsh.
Glidden was signed by the Falcons as a college free agent following the draft out of Oklahoma State. As a junior he led the Cowboys with 42 receptions on the year and was second on the team in receiving yards with 598.
Obada is from London, where he played for the London Warriors in the British American Football Association National Leagues.
