According to a report from ESPN NFL Insider Adam Schefter, the Falcons have their next punter. Former Dolphins punter Jake Bailey is signing a three-year deal worth $9 million ($5 million guaranteed). Just moments later, NFL insider Tom Pelissero reported that veteran kicker Nick Folk will come to Atlanta on a two-year deal.

Austin Hooper, who has been riding shotgun to Hunter Henry at tight end, reportedly agreed to a free agent deal with the Atlanta Falcons. Hooper is making a return to Atlanta. The Falcons drafted him in 2016 in the third round.

The Bears and Falcons advocated for the Bears to receive a 2026 and 2027 third-round pick after Cunningham left for Atlanta.

The Arizona Cardinals have made their first notable move in free agency, adding a new running back. According to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler, they are going to sign former Atlanta Falcons running back Tyler Allgeier to a two-year contract worth $12.25 million.

The Atlanta Falcons have officially locked in their coaching staff for the 2026 season.

The Atlanta Falcons are expected to pursue veteran quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in NFL free agency, according to reports from multiple NFL insiders. While Tagovailoa isn't currently a free agent, he will be released by the Miami Dolphins at the start of the new league year on March 11.
