Fantasy Impact:
A trade can’t happen prior to June 1 for cap reasons, but it sounds like teams realize Atlanta finds themselves with some cap issues and are trying to take advantage of that by inquiring about Jones, who has a cap hit of $23M in 2021. It’s been rumored Kyle Pitts is the Falcons’ pick at Number 4 overall, which would certainly be one way to help the offense in the event Jones is moved. Russell Gage would be a guy to keep an eye on if this were to happen, as he’d step into a WR2 role on a potent passing offense.
