The #Falcons placed playmaking LB Deion Jones on Injured Reserve because of a foot issue. First Keanu Neal, then Jones. Costly Week 1.

Wooow. Falcons and Titans hit hardest week 1.

Aiken too.

3 guys who the Ravens either attempted to or had to rely on heavily over the past few years are now out of the league and none by choice (I assume). If you didn't think so before, it really says something about the quality of player Flacco has had to work with.

Aiken signed. Crazy that three of our WRs from that last few years could possibly be on the defending champs.

This is why teams HATE extending aging vets.. both Olsen and Walker just got sizable extensions and done for the year.

EDIT: To no fault of their own

The #Raiders and Martavis Bryant are closing in on a 1-year deal -- and barring any hiccup, he's expected to play this week, per team source. Not officially signed yet, but they called him this morning and it's expected to get done today. Quite the twist.

Thought Bryant was possibly facing a 1 year suspension?

for now he's eligible. I guess they're a little desperate when Mack has more TDs than Carr

He is. They are taking their chances

The Falcon defense is completely screwed. Deion Jones is their best player. Keanu Neal was a top 5 defensive player for them. Losing both for the seasons game 1 is brutal
