Five former Falcons players remain unsigned in NFL free agency

Summary

As of June 5, 2026, five former Atlanta Falcons players are still looking for new contracts in NFL free agency. The Falcons, who have seen significant roster changes this offseason, released players like Kaden Elliss and Kirk Cousins. The players currently unsigned include edge rusher Leonard Floyd, linebacker Josh Woods, wide receivers KhaDarel Hodge and Malik Heath, and offensive tackle Tyrone Wheatley Jr. The absence of Floyd, especially, raises questions due to the Falcons' rookie talent and potential suspension of James Pearce Jr. These players still have time to find new teams before training camps commence in July.
