  Falcons | Deion Jones making progress    Wed Aug 3, 11:57 AM

Atlanta Falcons LB Deion Jones (shoulder) is 'trending in the right direction' while rehabbing from an offseason shoulder procedure, head coach Arthur Smith said on Wednesday, Aug. 3. Smith declined to give a timetable for Jones' return to practice, though.

Footballguys view: The Falcons are trying to trade Jones if anyone will take on his 9.6 million dollar salary. The team is likely to move on from Jones no later than next year and they drafted Troy Andersen in the second round and signed Rashaan Evans and Nick Kwiatkowski, so it's possible that Jones isn't even a starter this year. They seem to be content to keep him if they can't find a trade because the cap savings will be minimal and there aren't signs that he'll be a distraction if he's still on the team.

  Falcons | PUP list for Deion Jones    Thu Jul 21, 05:15 PM

Atlanta Falcons LB Deion Jones (shoulder) was placed on the Active/Physically Unable to Perform list Thursday, July 21.

Footballguys view: Jones probably won't be with the Falcons next year. If they can find a taker in a trade, it would save the team 15 million in cap room, but that will be difficult as long as his shoulder is keeping him on the PUP list. Free agent pickup Rashaan Evans, second-round pick Troy Andersen and 2020 fourth rounder Mykal Walker are vying for the spot next to Jones at inside linebacker in Dean Pees defense.

  Falcons | Deion Jones on the bubble?    Mon Jul 11, 09:33 AM

Atlanta Falcons LB Deion Jones' place on the team is up in the air as training camp beckons. He would have a $19 million dead cap hit if released, but the team is already dealing with $63 million in dead cap space.

Footballguys view: The Falcons certainly don't want add more dead cap and would prefer to trade Jones, but he's not in their future plans. Second-round pick Troy Andersen and 2020 fourth rounder Mykal Walker are the players on the rise at off ball linebacker, with free agent pickup and former Tennessee first-round pick Rashaan Evans looking to redeem his value. Jones will probably be a Falcon this year because of a lack of trade value, but a release isn't totally out of the question if they like the progress of Andersen in his first camp.

  Falcons | Week 17 final stats for Falcons    Sun Dec 29, 04:53 PM

Atlanta Falcons QB Matt Ryan finished up with 30-of-51 passes for 313 yards, one touchdown and no interceptions in Week 17 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. RB Devonta Freeman led the way with 18 rushes for 58 yards while adding two receptions for 15 yards. WR Julio Jones posted seven catches for a team-best 78 yards on 13 targets, while WR Russell Gage chipped in with seven grabs for 68 yards on 13 targets. TE Austin Hooper also checked in with seven receptions for 45 yards on nine targets. LB Deion Jones recorded a fumble recovery and a 27-yard interception return for touchdown in overtime.

Footballguys view: The Falcons will keep the band together and if the offensive line stays healthy they could be a 2020 success story. Devonta Freeman could be a cap casualty, making the Falcons a possible landing spot for Kenyan Drake, Melvin Gordon or a high running back draft pick.
