Atlanta Falcons: Time to punt away Cameron Nizialek

The Atlanta Falcons have had an interesting ride at the punter position during Arthur Smith and Terry Fontenot’s first year.

It seemed as though Sterling Hofrichter would end up being given the job until he was injured during the offseason resulting in his cut. Then he cleared waivers, ended up on the Falcons injured reserve, and then was cut once more and is still currently a free agent.

This provided an opportunity for Dom Maggio and Cameron Nizialek in the preseason.

Looking at both of their play during the three preseason games, it was obvious that Nizialek would be the clear winner, and now here we are following week two and the Falcons will once again need to look for a new punter.
