The Falcons practice squad started to take shape yesterday. Exciting! And to be sure, this process is always an interesting one to watch, as teams look to stash away some of the guys that were on their respective roster bubbles.
So join me, Falcons fans, as we take a closer look at the current state of the Falcons practice squad.
Etling couldn’t stick in New England before he arrived in Atlanta. And with Matt Schaub entrenched as Matt Ryan’s backup, this was, in essence, Etling’s best case scenario. It gives him a shot to hang around in anticipation of a camp battle with Kurt Benkert next summer.
