Atlanta Falcons training camp preview: All eyes on Desmond Ridder

FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. -- The Atlanta Falcons open training camp on Wednesday at the team’s practice facility in Flowery Branch, Georgia. Here is a closer look at a few storylines.

Biggest question: Can Desmond Ridder become the starting quarterback Atlanta needs him to be?

This likely won’t be something truly answerable until the Falcons are well into the season. Atlanta has given Ridder a lot of protection in a well-paid, veteran offensive line and lined the offense up with elite-level skill position players at running back (Bijan Robinson, Tyler Allgeier, Cordarrelle Patterson), wide receiver (Drake London) and tight end (Kyle Pitts, Jonnu Smith).
