Falcons training camp 2025: Day 3 recap and practice notes

Skirmishes dominating the conversation on Day 3 of camp, Michael Penix continued looking good and we finally got a glance at the kicker battle.

There wasn’t a cloud in the sky this morning. Genuinely, walking up to camp today amid another frenzy of a crowd packing out the hill for a second consecutive day, there wasn’t even any semblance of reprieve from the unrelenting and sweltering late July Georgia sun.

It’s been like that all three days of camp so far, but it hasn’t discouraged Falcons fans from making the trek to see their team hit the practice field, as...

Falcons training camp 2025: Day 2 recap and practice notes

The Falcons attracted quite the crowd of fans for Saturday’s practice, and the on-field action didn’t disappoint. Day 2 featured an impressive showing by the defense, some young players stepping up, and some nice throws by Michael Penix and Kirk Cousins.

Atlanta Falcons fans are in a frenzy over this year’s team. Likely the mixture of rejuvenated optimism in quarterback play combined with this being the first weekend day of camp practice in Flowery Branch open to the public in two years, the amount of people on the hill was incredible.

In all my years attending camp practices, both reporting...

Darnell Mooney missing time is an opportunity for the Falcons to become a better team

Darnell Mooney missing time is an opportunity for the Falcons to become a better team

The Falcons will miss Mooney as long as he’s gone, but they can become a more resilient and well-rounded team in his absence.

The Atlanta Falcons are going to be without Darnell Mooney for “most” of training camp and/or a “few weeks”, a bummer way to start the first day. If you’re like me, it’s easy to think negatively after taking in the information, and that was my first inclination last night.

Yes, it’s good that Mooney isn’t expected to miss time during the regular season, for now. But Michael Penix Jr needed as many reps with the top guys...

Darnell Mooney suffered a shoulder injury, set to miss ‘a few weeks’

Darnell Mooney suffered a shoulder injury, set to miss ‘a few weeks’

The hope is that Mooney’s absence won’t stretch into the regular season.

Darnell Mooney has suffered a shoulder injury and will miss a few weeks, per Friday night reports. That’s not as terrible as we feared, but it’s not great.

Training camp injuries are one of the worst parts of professional football. A chunk or a full season being taken from a player before any live action takes place is a vile feature of the game. The Atlanta Falcons had multiple such cases a year ago, losing 2024 addition Rondale Moore and rookie Bralen Trice for the entire season. Now...

Falcons signing veteran WR DJ Chark

Falcons signing veteran WR DJ Chark

Atlanta adds a veteran receiver, a move that makes us nervous about Darnell Mooney.

I have been stumping for the Atlanta Falcons to add DJ Chark for a few years now, but I did not want it to happen against the backdrop of a top Falcons receiver potentially suffering a significant injury. Here we are, though.

Darnell Mooney took a hard fall in practice yesterday and there hasn’t been an update about his status, so signing a veteran receiver with starting experience does feel a little ominous. Until we get an update, though, all we can really react to is...

Bijan Robinson lands at No. 62 in the annual NFL Top 100 list

Bijan Robinson lands at No. 62 in the annual NFL Top 100 list

The gifted young back has an argument to be even higher, but will likely savor the recognition.

The NFL unveils a list of its top 100 players each year, which grinds on for weeks as we learn what players think of their peers. We’ve now seen three Atlanta Falcons make that list, with Bijan Robinson at #62 joining Jessie Bates at #92 and Drake London at #97.

It’s perhaps a little surprising to see Bijan not make the top 50, but he is only two years into what is shaping up to be a tremendous career. After a strong but...

Falcons cut CB Kevin King, place three players on Non-Football Injury list

Falcons cut CB Kevin King, place three players on Non-Football Injury list

It’s a surprising move after the first day of camp.

The Atlanta Falcons have one day of training camp in the books, but the roster moves are already rolling in. After placing Troy Andersen on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list earlier today, they’ve announced they’re cutting one player and placing three more on the Non-Football Injury list.

The cut is a surprising one. Per Falcons beat reporter Terrin Waack, they’re cutting Kevin King, the veteran cornerback who returned from years lost to injury and COVID and turned in a quality campaign as a reserve and special teamer. Waack...

Falcons training camp 2025: Day 1 recap and practice notes

The Falcons first training camp practice brought us many insights into the team’s status heading into the 2025 season. Read on for notes from our live coverage on Thursday.

It’s life’s consistencies which sometimes bring us the most comfort. Two major consistencies which we experience in late July collide, coming together in the form of the Georgia heat and Atlanta Falcons Training Camp, both of which descended upon Flowery Branch like the expected guests they are.

Raheem Morris kicked things off with his pre camp press conference, announcing a major injury update (we’ll get to that) and talking about how...

3 Falcons storylines on offense to pay attention to during 2025 training camp

3 Falcons storylines on offense to pay attention to during 2025 training camp

What will a Michael Penix offense look like, and is the depth behind Ryan Neuzil set to be scary?

The Atlanta Falcons offense is once again the engine that will power this team’s playoff aspirations; they can’t afford to stall out the way they did in 2024. Training camp is here, and the offense has multiple storylines worth paying attention to throughout the process.

Here are three I will be keeping tabs on, and they’re ones you should watch closely, too.

Can Zac Robinson take the next step?

The man known as ZRob had a solid debut as a...
