The Falcons finished their first preseason game with a win, and soon enough they’ll have to make five cuts to the roster. We’ll try to figure out who might be staying and going in the coming days, but first, it might be instructive to take a look at the snap counts and see how the coaching staff divvied up playing time on Friday night.
Let’s do that now.
