Things to Watch for:

Special Teams

The Atlanta Falcons special teams have looked shaky at best in this exhibition season. The kicking game has been atrocious, with Blair Walsh having been signed to compete with Giorgio Tavecchio.

Now word has come down that Matt Bryant will work out for the Atlanta Falcons coaching staff on tomorrow. Coy Wire a former linebacker for the Falcons and prior teammate of Bryant broke the news first via Twitter:

Matt Bryant could certainly be the answer to the team’s kicking woes, but there is still the issue of kick returner to resolve. Marcus Green has had trouble fielding punts and needs a big effort against the Jaguars to inspire confidence.

Kenjon Barner, Justin Hardy and Olamide Zaccheaus are also thought to be in the mix, as possible field position setters for the Atlanta Falcons. For more on the Atlanta Falcons special teams issues, read this article.

Wide Receiver Competition

The battle for who wins the last two wide receiver spots behind Julio Jones, Mohamed Sanu, Calvin Ridley and Russell Gage, will be something interesting to focus on tonight. Marcus Green, Olamide Zaccheaus, Christian Blake and C.J. Worton are the top young candidates.

If Justin Hardy plays in the team’s last preseason game, we will know that he is still fighting for a roster spot. More on the wife receiver battle can be found by clicking here.

Player to Watch – Kaleb McGary

Kaleb McGary has missed due the entire preseason thus far, due to a minor heart procedure. It was believed that he would be out six to eight weeks, but shockingly, he is expected to play just 29 days later.

The 2019 first round pick (number 21) will definitely be a player to keep an eye on. If he holds up well against the Jaguars, that means we could soon see Kaleb starting for the Atlanta Falcons.

Judging by the struggles of right tackle Ty Sambrailo so far in the preseason, Kaleb McGary earning the starting position would be best for the football team.

Snapping the long preseason losing streak and tasting victory, would be a great confidence booster for the Atlanta Falcons heading into this upcoming season. However the most important thing on the agenda, is to make evaluations for the final roster spots.

Competitions at running back, tight end, linebacker and defense back are additional factors to consider when viewing the Dirty Birds last preseason game. Many dreams will either be realized or deffered, by plays in this week’s final preseason game.
