The Falcons drafted Marlon Davidson the round after standout corner AJ Terrell back in the 2020 NFL Draft. The defenders started their careers in opposite paths. Terrell may be the league’s best young corner, quickly establishing himself as an impact player in his rookie season before turning things up even more in 2021.
Davidson, on the other hand, never really worked into a starting role in his rookie year. He missed some time due to a positive COVID test and missed the Detroit Lions game. Despite an even less-talented defensive line in 2021, Davidson still had trouble finding a role, inactive one week then again missing the Detroit Lions due to a positive COVID test.
