The Falcons have remade their receiving corps this offseason out of necessity, not desire. Calvin Ridley is suspended, Russell Gage has departed for Tampa Bay, and the team has had a burning need for veteran additions who have some upside or history of production so Marcus Mariota has some options to throw to this year.
The Falcons aren’t done yet—there may be more signings and there will definitely be at least one draft pick—but that receiving corps is beginning to take shape. Damiere Byrd will almost certainly be a major part of it in 2022.
Byrd is now the most experienced player in this group.
