The Atlanta Falcons certainly have more work to do to the roster before they're ready to head to Pittsburgh to battle the Steelers in Week 1, but the team announced their official 53-man roster Sunday to set the table for the season. Joe Patrick discusses the surprising choices and what General Manager Ian Cunningham might be thinking heading into a busy week of more transactions.

The Atlanta Falcons wrapped up its preseason with a second stright win, this time 17-12 over the Miami Dolphins. But the big question on everyone's mind was whether Tua Tagovailoa would put on a display worthy of being the team's starting quarterback. And despite good passing numbers, Tua critically fumbled and turned the ball over on the team's second drive. Does that seal his fate?

Atlanta Falcons will wrap up preseason action Friday night with the starting quarterback situation remaining unresolved as the team heads into preparation to play the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 1. And despite returning to full practice today, Head Coach Kevin Stefanski said Michael Penix Jr. wouldn't play any snaps in Friday's action against the Dolphins... .but the tea leaves suggest the door isn't closed (and far from it) for the third-year QB to make the start under center in the season opener. Joe Patrick discusses that and more from today's practice, including the heartwrenching story that led EDGE defender Za'Darius Smith to Atlanta.

The Atlanta Falcons started its preseason schedule on the wrong foot with a 27-7 loss to the Denver Broncos at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Tua Tagovailoa and the first team offense looked sloppy and ineffective. On the other side of the ball, the Broncos starters pummeled the Falcons en route to a 24-0 halftime lead in what was ultimately an ugly way to start the preseason for Kevin Stefanski.

As Atlanta Falcons continues, new storylines emerge as players miss time and others gain an opportunity because of it. After rookie linebackers Harold Perkins Jr. and Kendal Daniels have seen increased time with losses on defense, fellow Day 3 rookie Ethan Onianwa is now repping with Falcons starters at right tackle as Jawaan Taylor is yet to feature this summer. While Kevin Stefanski has praised the veteran's presence in meetings, it can't hurt Onianwa's case that he's risen to get such high quality reps. That and more on today's Joe Patrick on Football.
