What happened

The team claimed cash Jones and Jared Ivey off waivers after the NFL’s final roster cutdowns, while simultaneously releasing Zach Harrison and Natrone Brooks. Atlanta’s official site confirmed the three waiver claims, and CBSSports reported Jones’ signing to the practice squad. Yahoo Sports noted Ivey’s move from Seattle.

The swift adjustments raise the question of whether the new additions can fill the gaps left by the departures. The decision to cut a third‑round defensive lineman has turned heads across the league, according to Yahoo Sports, signaling a willingness to trade draft capital for immediate depth. With the practice squad now at 17 players, the Falcons must integrate the newcomers quickly.

Observers will watch early‑season workouts to see if the roster changes translate into on‑field performance.
