Feleipe Franks – TE

I, personally, am still holding out hope for Feleipe Franks because he is a great story and an intriguing player. However, he has failed to do anything for the Atlanta Falcons following his switch from quarterback to tight end.

The team clearly still believes in him or else he would be long gone by now. All fans have seen is a whole lot of nothing, other than a penalty against Pittsburgh.

He has played more than five snaps in one game this season and has only played in seven games total. Here are his stats: two targets, zero catches, and zero yards. So, yes, he has legitimately done nothing—at least in the receiving game—but hopefully, he is learning every week and can stick around, because who wouldn’t be intrigued by a six-foot-six tight end who ran a 4.55 forty-yard dash at his Arkansas pro day?
