Overview

  • The team parted with 12 players in an initial round of moves, including Morgan Fox, Ben DiNucci, Elijah Dotson, Lamar Jackson, and Matthew Cindric.
  • Fox’s exit stands out after he signed a two-year deal in March and played in all three preseason games, drawing surprise across coverage.
  • Atlanta placed offensive lineman Jake Hanson on season-ending injured reserve following an injury in the preseason finale.
  • The roster now sits at 77, requiring 24 more cuts by Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET to reach the 53-man limit.
  • The decisions followed a winless preseason capped by a 31-13 loss to the Cowboys, intensifying scrutiny of depth along the defensive front and offensive line.
