Atlanta Falcons: 27 players meet in Florida to practice

The 2015 season is just three months removed but that isn’t stopping the Atlanta Falcons from getting together and having a team work out session.

Reports broke yesterday that Matt Ryan was gathering 26 of his teammates in Miami, Florida to have some throwing sessions and to get a jump on offseason workouts. The players in attendance will be Ryan, Julio Jones, Devonta Freeman, Mohamed Sanu, Jacob Tamme, Levine Toilolo, Justin Hardy, Desmond Trufant, Robert Alford and a few more.

The unit had field workouts yesterday and will continue those workouts today. They also scheduled two team dinners, one of which took place last night and the other will take place tonight.

It’s awesome to hear about the team’s leaders not wasting any time in preparing themselves for next season. This shows how hungry they are to improve and how bad they want to make it back into the postseason for the first time since 2012.

It’s great to see Sanu get to work with Ryan for the first time and have those two build a relationship as soon as possible. Sanu will be a big part of the offense in 2016 and he needs to gel as quickly as possible with Ryan in order to succeed to the fullest.

As far as the rest of the players go, it will feature every single one of the top receiving weapons for the Falcons. As far as we know, nobody that is expected to have a major role in 2016 isn’t there. All of them are going to be there including the tight ends.

This really shows Ryan wanting to work. It appears that he was the one that made this happen and that couldn’t be more exciting to hear out of your franchise quarterback. Let’s hope their workouts are a huge success. Rise up!
