The Atlanta Falcons waived defensive end Bralen Trice on August 30, 2026, as the organization moves to reach the NFL roster limit of 53 players. Trice, a third-round selection in the 2024 NFL Draft, has not appeared in a regular-season game for the team due to injuries during his first two seasons. Alongside the move involving Trice, Atlanta waived wide receiver Vinny Anthony and center James Brockermeyer, while releasing offensive tackle Wanya Morris and defensive end Cameron Sample. The franchise also completed a trade with the Chicago Bears to acquire defensive tackle Gervon Dexter in exchange for cornerback Clark Phillips III and a fifth-round draft pick. The Falcons roster currently stands at 74 players as the team works toward the league-mandated 6 p.m. ET deadline.
