Falcons acquire offensive tackle Wanya Morris from Chiefs in trade
Summary

The Atlanta Falcons have finalized a trade with the Kansas City Chiefs for offensive tackle Wanya Morris, announced on Tuesday morning. The deal involves the Falcons sending a 2027 sixth-round pick to the Chiefs in exchange for Morris and a 2027 seventh-round selection. This move comes as the Falcons address depth issues at offensive tackle after placing Storm Norton on the reserve/physically unable to perform list. With veteran right tackle Kaleb McGary retiring in April, the Falcons are looking to bolster their offensive line ahead of mandatory minicamp. Morris will back up former Chiefs teammate Jawaan Taylor, who is expected to start.
