Atlanta Falcons Fantasy Football Outlook (2026)

By Andrew Erickson (FantasyPros), Thu, Sep 3rd 2026, 10:30am EDT

Atlanta starts the year at Pittsburgh and at home versus the Panthers. Decent spot for an underrated unit that was a fringe top 12 unit in 2025. However without LB Jalon Walker and second-year EDGE rusher James Pearce Jr., it's more desperation. After the initial projections loved love Atlanta as an underrated unit (second in projected sacks) they have fallen outside the top-10 in projected sacks.
