Falcons post-draft roster review: Grizzled veterans dominate tackle
Briefly

The Atlanta Falcons maintain stability with their starting tackle duo, Jake Matthews and Kaleb McGary, who have been consistent since 2019 and 2014, respectively. Matthews is recognized for his strong pass protection and durability, having started every game since his rookie season. In 2025, he will be protecting Michael Penix's blind side for the first time. McGary, known for his run-blocking abilities, faces challenges in pass protection but continues to improve. Storm Norton serves as the swing tackle for the second consecutive year, adding depth to the roster at this position.
Jake Matthews is a franchise legend and an ironman, with 179 games, all of them starts, making him one of the Falcons' all-time leaders in games played.
Kaleb McGary's pass protection fortunes are a concern since he is now protecting Michael Penix's blind side, although he remains an exceptional run blocking tackle.
