Falcons to sign QB Kyle Lauletta to practice squad

The Atlanta Falcons are set to fill out their 16-man practice squad this afternoon following Saturday’s final roster cuts. So far, the only name connected to the Falcons is quarterback Kyle Lauletta, a fourth-round draft pick by the Giants in 2018.

ESPN’s Vaughn McClure is reporting that Atlanta is set to sign Lauletta to the practice squad after he cleared waivers.

The team released both Lauletta and backup QB Kurt Benkert on Saturday. Fans were hoping to see Benkert make the 53-man roster but the Falcons instead opted to keep just two quarterbacks — Matt Ryan and Matt Schaub — despite the COVID-19 pandemic.

Check back for more updates throughout the day as Atlanta fills out its practice squad for 2020.
