The families are being honored during the Salute to Service Weekend, November 22-25, 2019, where they were were meeting the organization with the names of their fallen heroes’ jerseys in the Falcons’ locker room and had the opportunity to meet with players.

On Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Falcons players will wear the initials of a fallen hero on their helmets.
