The Atlanta Falcons have to fill both sides of the ball during the offseason, and that’s before any potential downtime. One of the positions where the team could use an infusion of depth and talent is to go back.
Ito Smith and Qadree Ollison will return in 2021, but Todd Gurley and Brian Hill are unrestricted free agents. The draft is probably the best option for the Falcons to update on the runner, but as GM Terry Fontenot put it when he was hired, the team will explore all avenues to find talent.
Here are twelve streams that Atlanta could pursue in free agency.
