Heading into today, I had noted on Twitter that the Falcons seemingly had more than 90 players on the roster post-draft, which I assumed they’d resolve quickly. That turned out to be accurate, as the team made a flurry of moves on Monday.
Per Tori McElhaney with AtlantaFalcons.com, the team isn’t just cutting Mike Davis and James Vaughters, which are the moves that have been previously reported today. They’re also cutting offensive lineman Willie Beavers and placing long snapper Beau Brinkley on injured reserve.
Beavers pushed for the swing tackle role a year ago in training camp, and while he lost that battle, he did end up spending the 2021 season on the practice squad.
