Buy Falcons Tickets

The Atlanta Falcons (2-2) have released a new depth chart ahead of their Week 5 game against the Houston Texans (2-2). After losing two straight, Atlanta returns to Mercedes-Benz Stadium to face one the most surprising teams in the AFC.

Falcons quarterback Desmond Ridder is struggling, while Texans rookie QB C.J. Stroud is playing so well that the Panthers may regret passing on him with the No. 1 pick. Check out the team’s latest depth chart below.
