The Atlanta Falcons are reportedly going to cut veteran nose tackle Paul Soliai in the coming weeks and if that is the case, they will need to find him a replacement. The Falcons have Joey Mbu on the roster but will likely look to bring in a new NT as well to compete for the job with Mbu.

Finding a new nose tackle isn’t going to be that high on the Falcons’ list, but they do need to find someone to at least be on the roster for next season. This may be one of their fill-in positions for next season meaning they might find someone to come in for a year and part ways like they did Justin Durant.
