The Atlanta Falcons released linebacker Channing Tindall following the NFL preseason on August 30, 2026. Tindall, who signed with the Falcons this offseason after previously playing for the Miami Dolphins and Arizona Cardinals, recorded six tackles during preseason games but did not secure a spot on the 53-man roster. He was a third-round draft pick in 2022 and won a national championship with Georgia in 2021. The Falcons could potentially re-sign him for their practice squad. Tindall's release means Atlanta no longer holds the title for the most Georgia Bulldogs in the NFL.
