Falcons place WR Laquon Treadwell on reserve/COVID-19 list, add LB Jake Carlock to practice squad

Laquon Treadwell has been on the practice squad much of the year after losing his roster battle to the likes of Olamide Zaccheaus, Brandon Powell, and Christian Blake. Having a proven veteran option in case of injury is a nice luxury of an expanded practice squad, even if the team hasn’t needed him to this point, and Treadwell may still be called upon at some point to contribute. It just won’t be in the next couple of weeks, because he’s headed to the reserve/COVID-19 list.

In a corresponding move, the Falcons picked up linebacker Jake Carlock, who they’ve sniffed around in the recent past.
