Falcons release K Elliott Fry

It is easy to forget there was a theoretical kicking competition expected through training camp with phenom Younghoe Koo on the roster. Based on early transactions, that competition wrapped before any players landed back in Flowery Branch.

The Falcons officially announced Fry’s release after the draft.

Fry spent time on Atlanta’s practice squad in 2020, an extended designation allowing teams to better protect against an outbreak of COVID-19. He was active during one game in 2020 and went 1 for 2 on his extra points. Koo injured his groin warming up against the Chicago Bears in Week 3, creating some serious issues both in Week 3 and Week 4 for a team that was heavily reliant on field goals.
