Why Falcons’ Cordarrelle Patterson is a player worth watching against the Bucs

When the Tampa Bay Buccaneers host the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday afternoon they’ll be looking to defeat their NFC South Division rival for the fourth time in five tries, and even the franchise series at 28 wins each.

More importantly, the Bucs are trying to get their season off to a 2-0 start, and the Falcons are looking to avoid an 0-2 beginning to their 2021 season.

Helping Atlanta in their efforts are some usual cast members. Matt Ryan plays quarterback, Calvin Ridley at wide receiver, and Deion Jones at linebacker. These are all guys Bucs fans have seen before, and know what to expect to a certain extent.
