You won’t see LB Brooks Reed wearing No. 56 this season, in fact, you’ll see Sean Weatherspoon sporting it.
Weatherspoon wore No. 56 during his time in Atlanta prior to signing to with the Arizona Cardinals in 2015 and now that he has returned, he's convinced his teammate Reed to give him back his old number.
Lol I love my tweeps Brooks let me get 56 back! Real one!

Reed took over No. 56 last season in his first year with the Falcons, and now he’ll wear No.
