Falcons will reportedly release QB Kyle Lauletta from practice squad

The Falcons carried two quarterbacks on the practice squad coming out of their roster cutdown, which wasn’t stunning because Matt Ryan and Matt Schaub are getting older and we’re living through an uncertain season thanks to COVID-19. It was never a given both of those players would stay around all season, however, because of the ways injuries could shift roster needs.

With Kaleb McGary out for the next week or more, the team has evidently decided they need to add more offensive line depth. Per ESPN’s Vaughn McClure, they’ll do so by releasing Kyle Lauletta from the practice squad, with an unknown practice squad signing likely to follow.
