Through it all and as tough as it may be to find, there have been a few positives so far from an Atlanta Falcons team that’s underperforming.
Austin Hooper is proving that he is one of the most dependable tight ends in the NFL, proving to everyone that last season wasn’t a fluke. Through a quarter of the season, he ranks fifth among players in receptions above the likes of Deandre Hopkins, Travis Kelci, and even our very own Julio Jones.
It wouldn’t be a stretch to say that he’s been the best player on offense for the Falcons.
