Falcons release WR Laquon Treadwell

In March, the Atlanta Falcons were looking to add another receiving option to their already talented offense. They signed former first-round pick Laquon Treadwell, who spent the previous four seasons with the Minnesota Vikings.

It’s safe to say that Treadwell was a bust for the Vikings, as he only scored two touchdowns in 53 games and was even released by the team last season before they eventually brought him back. On Saturday afternoon, as part of the Falcons task of dropping the roster to 53 players, the team released Treadwell, and he wasn’t pleased with the camp reports about him struggling in camp.
