Anthony FitzpatrickHOST
With no Dortch here and with some other potential candidates getting caught, we wondered, but it is going to be Tom Kennedy.
Anthony FitzpatrickHOST
Taking his place on the practice squad is Natrone Brooks, defensive back out of Southern Miss a few years ago.
Anthony FitzpatrickHOST
Been sort of bouncing around here and there.
Anthony FitzpatrickHOST
and everywhere but the Lions just bringing in another body in the secondary on the practice squad just in case because you know with our team's looks There's always a chance that we're going to need him at some point.
Aaron FreemanGUEST
And so... seeing him play a little bit more of a cerebral version of himself was like, oh, okay.
Aaron FreemanGUEST
And sort of, and I thought it was interesting because, you know, we had the day, the 24 hours where we had six safeties on the roster and it was like, What are we doing? What's this all about? And again, and Natron Brooks and Jamie Robinson, all those guys played well enough to make the roster.
Aaron FreemanGUEST
Had Darren Hall not gotten injured, you would have probably been like, yeah, Darren Hall played well enough.
Aaron FreemanGUEST
So the safety group was a deep group going into that third string guys playing good football over the preseason.
Aaron FreemanGUEST
So it was all justified in terms of keeping him was like, do you need six safeties? But it was just kind of a placeholder as they.
Aaron FreemanGUEST
sort of did their roster reshuffling so you know robinson's back on the practice squad you know r.i.p four went out for natron brooks um you know the preseason superstar i once again enjoyed watching natron brooks this preseason as i always do as we all do you know, regular season stuff, you know, but I thought the move to safety was, was helping him because it was just like, okay, well, we're not going to put you on tech, make the only letter Jalen Coker again.
Aaron FreemanGUEST
We made that mistake one time.
Aaron FreemanGUEST
And sort of like, you just be a safety and just play balls.
Aaron FreemanHOST
But we'll see how that all plays out over the course of the season.
Aaron FreemanHOST
But in order to clear room for these three new additions to the roster, the Falcons cut defensive lineman Zach Harrison and defensive backs Natron Brooks and Jamie Robinson.
Aaron FreemanHOST
And so we talked about them having 13 DBs and that was a number that they needed to pare down.
Aaron FreemanHOST
So now officially they're down to 11 and officially it came out after yesterday's episode that the Falcons did bring Billy Bowman back from the populace.
Derek RackleyHOST
Josh Woods, who initially started on the practice squad, has since been elevated to the active roster because J.D. Bertrand ended up going on injured reserve.
Derek RackleyHOST
players that were claimed off of waivers a couple of linebackers and yasir abdullah and jared ivy and then tackle cameron williams also joining the team and to make room for them they ended up waving jamie robinson natron brooks and zach harrison so these are some of the moves that continue to get made by this coaching staff this front office and president of football because they're constantly moving pieces around to try to figure out and we've said it so many times what gives us the best chance to win football games on Sundays, to give us the best depth, to continue to raise the floor in our backup.
Derek RackleyHOST
So those were some of the moves that we saw made recently.
Derek RackleyHOST
All right, guys, I'm gonna throw you out kind of more of a softball, 30,000 foot question here, Shaq.
Corey BurtonHOST
And the other guys too as well, I think that were part of this move.
Corey BurtonHOST
Natron Brooks, he's out as well as Jamie Robinson.
Corey BurtonHOST
You could take or leave that.
Corey BurtonHOST
And with Billy Bowman coming back, that's something that I think that they felt like they could live with.
Aaron FreemanHOST
He's kind of the anti-Clarke Phillips when it comes to run support, right? Again, you can sit here and focus on what Jalen Coker did to him last year in that Carolina game, which is fair.
Aaron FreemanHOST
But there are other skills that Natron Brooks brings to the table that can allow him to still contribute on the Falcons roster, even if you're not in love with those coverage abilities.
Aaron FreemanHOST
And like I said, the anti-card folks, if you're going to be a shrimp, if you're going to be undersized, at least bring it.
Aaron FreemanHOST
When it comes to run support, which nature on Brooks does.
Matt ChernoffHOST
So Zach Harrison was one of the ones who got cut.
Matt ChernoffHOST
Natron Brooks, Jamie Robinson all let go to make room for the three waiver claims.
Matt ChernoffHOST
That one, again, a little surprise.
Matt ChernoffHOST
Quality piece, but this also goes to that crew didn't draft him.
Corey BurtonHOST
But they felt good about what they had and felt good enough that they could send him to Chicago in addition to a much needed, or in exchange for a much needed defensive lineman.
Corey BurtonHOST
Now, you got Natron Brooks who made it.
Corey BurtonHOST
Malcolm DeWalt, undrafted free agent, rookie.
Corey BurtonHOST
Him making it, I thought he had a really good camp.
Dave ArcherHOST
But there were a couple guys that had good camps.
Dave ArcherHOST
And Natron Brooks is an interesting one.
Dave ArcherHOST
I thought he spent the bulk of his time in training camp this year in the safety spot.
Dave ArcherHOST
He's played corner in his career.
Joe PatrickHOST
They all make it, of course.
Joe PatrickHOST
But then also, Natron Brooks.
Joe PatrickHOST
Congrats, man.
Joe PatrickHOST
I love Natron Brooks.
Joe PatrickHOST
I love watching him play.
Joe PatrickHOST
He plays with his heart.
