After months of anticipation, the Atlanta Falcons are now just one week from kicking off the 2025 NFL season at home against Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Head coach Raheem Morris and his staff have assembled their 53-man roster and 16-man practice squad ahead of the team’s NFC South showdown in Week 1.
The Falcons are going with a less experienced group this season, but the upside is undeniably higher with players like Michael Penix Jr. and Xavier Watts stepping in as full-time starters. However, the offense will need to overcome a recent onslaught of injuries at right tackle.
