Predicting the Falcons’ starting offense after 2023 free agency

In the two years since hiring general manager Terry Fontenot, the Atlanta Falcons have gone from salary cap hell to having the second-most projected cap space in the NFL.

If the team releases quarterback Marcus Mariota, Atlanta would have nearly $70 million to spend this offseason. While we don’t expect the team to go on a spending frenzy, there’s room to add a few quality players without completely breaking the bank.
