Who are the best candidates for Falcons Comeback Player of the Year?

The list of potential Comeback Player of the Year candidates for the Falcons is, frankly, a lengthy one. That’s what happens when you’re coming off a 7-9 season where multiple starters suffered costly injuries, others faltered mightily, and the team in general is due for a bounceback year.

It won’t be guys like Robert Alford and Ryan Schraeder, longtime reliable starters who by dint of injury and ineffectiveness found themselves cut after the 2018 season. And it won’t be guys like Matt Ryan, Julio Jones, Grady Jarrett or Damontae Kazee, who played extremely well in a lost season.
