Throwback Thursday: Remembering former Falcons RB Gerald Riggs

Hey Falcoholics, I’m back with another edition of The Falcoholic’s Throwback Thursday series.

This weekly segment highlights a former Atlanta Falcons player and discusses what they did for the franchise. Whether you’ve been a fan since the inaugural season, or just became a fan recently, this series will give insight on players from the past. So let’s begin.

If you’ve missed the past two segments, they were on Jessie “The Hammer” Tuggle and Tommy “Mr. Falcon” Nobis. This is the first segment highlighting a player from the offensive side of the ball, with none other than running back Gerald Riggs.
