Atlanta Falcons har officielt præsenteret 14 nye udraftede spillere på holdet. Blandt de nye ansigter er quarterback Jack Strand, der kommer fra Division II-holdet Minnesota State-Moorhead.
Strand har været startende quarterback i fire år og opnåede imponerende 13.161 kastede yards i løbet af sin college-karriere. Hans erfaring og præstationer gør ham til en konkret udfordrer til de etablerede navne i Atlanta.
De nye spillere skal konkurrere om pladserne i en trup, der allerede rummer erfarne profiler som Trevor Siemian og de skadede Michael Penix Jr. og Tua Tagovailoa, der fortsat er under bedring efter en skade.
