Within the next day, 27 players will no longer be on the Falcons’ roster, and perhaps even more than that. I keep starting articles with that because it’s a seismic change, a shaking up of a roster that has been pretty stable for months except for small moves and five cuts here and there, and because underneath it and around it the day-to-day business of the Atlanta Falcons goes on.
On Monday, for example, the team practiced. It’s very possible that some of the players who practiced today will not be back in the building again, which must make for a strange day, but the work rolls on.
