Falcons players reported to Flowery Branch on Tuesday ahead of training camp. As we remember from last year, the new first step after players report is testing for COVID-19. A heavy number of players across the league tested positive to kick off the 2020 offseason.
2021 sees fewer testing positive, but the Falcons were not fully immune from the ongoing pandemic.
Players placed on Reserve/COVID-19 include #Falcons TE Lee Smith, #Texans WR Taywan Taylor, #Giants LB Blake Martinez, #Jets T George Fant, #49ers DB Emmanuel Mosley.
