The NFL has taken no action against the Atlanta Falcons in relation to a possible hip-drop tackle that may have injured J.J. McCarthy last Sunday.

The Atlanta Falcons heard the criticism regarding their lack of a pass rush and got serious about fixing it over the 2025 offseason. The team selected two first-round edge rushers in Jalon Walker James Pearce Jr., trading a future first-round pick in order to secure Pearce.

Blank, who bought the Falcons in 2002 for $545 million, has long been recognized as one of the NFL’s most stable and respected owners. Under his leadership, the franchise reached Super Bowl LI and moved into the state-of-the-art Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

It’s been 30 years of Panthers football, and they have faced off against the Falcons exactly twice in every one of those seasons. Those first three years, the new expansion franchise actually had the upper hand, going 4-2 against the Birds.

Late in the second quarter at U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday, Atlanta Falcons star cornerback A.J. Terrell Jr. grabbed at his left hamstring while in coverage, limped to the sideline and did not return to his team’s 22-6 victory over the Minnesota Vikings.

The Falcons seem to have struck gold with their first-round draft pick in 2025, even if the scouts had a negative outlook on him.

The Atlanta Falcons released kicker Younghoe Koo on Friday, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo and Tom Pelissero.
