Atlanta Falcons: Top five players from day four of camp
1) Jacob Tamme
Tight end Jacob Tamme of the Atlanta Falcons
Jacob Tamme has been a familiar name on these lists and if you have been to Falcons Training camp you would see why. Tamme has split first team reps with 2014 starting tight end, Levine Toilolo but has outdone him in every way. Tamme snagged every ball that was thrown to him on the day including two 20 plus yard receptions.
Tamme’s best play came on a short crossing route. Covered by safety Ricardo Allen, Tamme made a move towards the outside but quickly planted and changed direction back towards the middle and left Allen in the dust. In fact, Allen slipped and fell to the ground as Tamme snagged it to the applause of the crowd.
A fan asked Tamme after practice on how many wins he thinks the team will have this year. Tamme responded with the following.
” I don’t predict that stuff. I just come out here, work hard and give it my all to help my teammates.”
Tamme is a seasoned veteran and a consonant professional. Expect his great 2015 Training camp to continue on into the season.
