The Atlanta Falcons are bringing back a safety to their practice squad after releasing him from the active roster this week.

The Atlanta Falcons made a few roster moves on Thursday ahead of their Week 15 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and they amount to a good sign for tight end Kyle Pitts' chances of playing.

The Falcons' top receiver has missed three straight games with a knee injury. Is he playing tonight vs. the Buccaneers? See the latest injury update:

The Atlanta Falcons have claimed former Green Bay Packers wide receiver Malik Heath off of waivers and released safety Jordan Fuller from their 53-man roster, the team announced on Monday afternoon.

The Buccaneers fell to 7-7, a half-game behind the Carolina Panthers in the NFC South. It has been a tough time for Cousins, who was benched last season and lost his job. He got it back due to a season-ending knee injury to Penix. He had been written off at age 37. But for one night at least, the Falcons looked smart for keeping him on the roster.

Despite the underperformance from the Falcons, Raheem Morris is adamant that these coaching changes are "irrelevant" right now.

The Atlanta Falcons announced a few last-minute roster moves ahead of their Week 14 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks. The team placed safety DeMarcco Hellams on the injured reserve list, signed wide receiver Deven Thompkins to the 53-man roster and elevated cornerback C.

After another disappointing season in Atlanta, Falcons owner Arthur Blank will evaluate the team's football operations for the rest of the season.

The Seattle Seahawks still have a few young key players on injured reserve, such as rookie wide receiver Tory Horton Jr. and starting center Jalen Sundell. However, the good news is that their roster is getting healthier a the playoffs approach.
