David Onyemata is the most logical cut option for the Falcons as a cap number of nearly $17 million for a player making just 45 tackles and three sacks is a lot to pay. In case they cut the DT before June 1, they will save $8.1 million and in case of a post June 1 cut, Falcons will save $10.5 million.
The 2024 season was the sixth year for Younghoe Koo at Atlanta. However the season wasn't that good enough. While playing 14 games for his side, the kicker had a 73.5% field goal percentage, along with 58 long field goals and 101 total kicking points. Koo might end up being a decent cut candidate for the Falcons ahead of the 2025 season. In case of a pre-June 1 cut, the team would save $3.0 million and in case of a post-June-1 cut, they would save $4.25 million.
31-year-old Grady Jarrett was a regular starter for the Falcons this season, making 17 appearances and recording 30 solo tackles along with 2.5 sacks. However, after almost 10 years at Atlanta, the DE's massive $20.4 million cap in 2025 might push the team to cut him before the new season. In case the team decides to part ways with Jarrett before June 1, they are set to save $16.3 million.
Charlie Woerner's first season with the Falcons wasn't up to the mark. After moving from San Francisco, the 27-year old TE made 16 appearances in 2024, amassing just seven receptions for 46 receiving yards. After a not-so-decent season, the team finds Woerner as solid cut candidate and would save around $1.7 million in case of a pre-June-1 cut.
