With Arnold a Bikety and Leonard Floyd hitting free agency next week, the team needs options for the 2026 season. The Falcons have tight salary cap room. But they plan some moves to free up space before the new league year starts. Plenty of veteran past rushers could fill the gap on short term deals.

Dremon Jones rounds out solid choices with 7 sacks. This episode is supported by our sponsor. When you want calm, do not reach for your phone. Lay back and listen, S-O-L-L-I, solelypillow.com.
