With their third selection at No. 58 of the 2022 NFL Draft, the Atlanta Falcons have taken linebacker Troy Andersen out of Montana State.
The hyper-athletic linebacker played multiple positions in the past and figures to fill multiple roles on the Atlanta defense.
The pride of Bozeman will join a linebacker room that features guys like Deion Jones, Rashaan Evans and Mykal Walker. More of an inside player, Andersen will likely be an immediate impact player on special teams (as Richie Grant was a year ago) and will find his way into significant playing time at linebacker somehow.
