The Atlanta Falcons acquired some defensive help on Monday, trading for Eagles defensive lineman Kentavius Street. With Grady Jarrett out for the season, the team will look to Street to provide some much-needed depth up front.
Street has experience playing for Falcons defensive coordinator Ryan Nielsen from when the two were with the New Orleans Saints in 2022. According to the team’s official website, Street will wear the No. 75 in Atlanta.
The Falcons have also reportedly signed defensive lineman Travis Bell off the Chicago Bears’ practice squad. Check out the team’s updated 53-man roster arranged by jersey number going into Sunday’s Week 9 matchup against the Minnesota Vikings.

Atlanta has released a new depth chart for Week 9, but the team won’t name a starting quarterback until Wednesday afternoon. The Vikings will start rookie quarterback Jaren Hall in place of Kirk Cousins, who tore his Achilles in Week 8.
