The Atlanta Falcons have once again been forced to search for a new punter this week, as starter Dustin Colquitt landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday. Atlanta’s punter struggles have been well-documented this season, as the team has dealt with injuries and ineffectiveness at the position since training camp. Between Sterling Hofrichter, Dom Maggio, Cameron Nizialek, and Colquitt, the team has had very little consistency in 2021.
There was some possible intrigue surrounding a possible Thomas Morstead signing earlier today, but that appears to have dissipated. The Falcons instead brought back a familiar face in Dom Maggio to the practice squad on Tuesday.
