Atlanta Falcons 2026 53-Man Roster Tracker, the Countdown is On

The Atlanta Falcons carry a 90-man roster during training camp and the preseason, and they must trim the roster to 53 players by Sunday at 6:00 p.m. EST by league mandate.

The Falcons have been shuffling their roster during the entirety of training camp, signing players like edge rusher Cameron Sample and Za'Darius Thomas, as well as wide receiver Beaux Collins among others.

Players have one final chance to make an impression tonight when the Falcons take on the Miami Dolphins at 7:00 p.m. at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens on Friday evening. It won't take until Sunday evening for news to start breaking that players are being released. Once they clear waivers, they'll be eligible to sign with the 16-man practice squad.

Some moves, like James Pearce Jr. beginning the season on the Reserve/Suspended list are pre-ordained. We've taken a shot at predicting the Falcons' 53-man roster, including players on the bubble. We'll post another one on Saturday after the Dolphins game.

We'll keep the roster count and news for you below as it breaks this weekend.
