The Atlanta Falcons have signed 14 players to their practice squad and officially completed a trade for Seattle Seahawks offensive tackle Michael Jerrell, the team announced on Wednesday afternoon. Nick Nash, Cobee Bryant, Khalid Kareem and Chris Blair were among those to return to Atlanta.
The Falcons reportedly added two other offensive linemen — Ryan Hayes and Carter Warren — to the practice squad but have yet to confirm either signing. Since the team still has three practice squad spots remaining, Hayes and Warren could join the others soon.

Kicker Lenny Krieg returned to Atlanta as well, but since he is part of the NFL’s international player pathway program, he won’t count against the team’s 16-man practice squad.
As for Jerrell, the Falcons felt they had to make a move for offensive line help following Kaleb McGary’s injury. Atlanta sent a 2027 seventh-round draft pick to Seattle for the second-year offensive tackle.
It’s unclear if the team will start Jerrell, but he at least gives the team much-needed depth at right tackle. Plus, the trade for Jerrell means the Falcons finally have a complete roster.
Check out the team’s updated 53-man roster and practice squad below.
