You can name a special special teamer or two from Falcons history without blinking, I’d wager. Morten Andersen, Deion Sanders, Billy “White Shoes” Johnson and now Matt Bryant are all pretty legendary names, and they don’t represent all the great special teamers who have passed through Atlanta over the years.
In what has to be the most comprehensive list of its type, though, Rick Gosselin put together teams upon teams of the best special teamers ever. The Falcons are pretty well-represented on this list, with names you’ve heard and one or two you probably haven’t heard in a very long time.
