The Atlanta Falcons are one of nine NFL teams holding voluntary workouts this Tuesday afternoon. The league allows teams with new head coaches to begin voluntary workouts a few weeks early to give them a head start on the busy offseason schedule.

The Falcons hired two-time NFL Coach of the Year Kevin Stefanski to take over for Raheem Morris in 2026. Stefanski has assembled his coaching staff and will look to take Atlanta back to the playoffs for the first time since 2017.

Several players, including running back Bijan Robinson, quarterback Michael Penix Jr., safety Jessie Bates III, linebacker Jalon Walker and tight end Kyle Pitts, have already showed up for the start of voluntary workouts.

Pitts’ presence is significant, since he was franchise-tagged by the Falcons at the start of NFL free agency. The sixth-year tight end officially signed his tag on Tuesday morning and is good to go for the 2026 NFL season.

Check out the Falcons players as they arrive in Flowery Branch, as shared by the team’s social media account below.
