What we learned from the first round of Falcons cuts

"It's possible the Falcons will scoop someone up once cuts are in, so you can't write this name down in pen. But Jake Hanson hitting injured reserve, Matthew Cindric getting cut, and Michael Gonzalez getting the axe earlier in August, Gwyn is the only semi-experienced center left behind starter Ryan Neuzil. Joshua Gray has been mentioned as a potential center candidate and may be down the line, but right now he's manning guard more often."

"The Falcons made a multi-year investment in Gwyn, a former late pick, in much the same way they did with Neuzil. Gwyn has been either on the roster or the practice squad since he arrived, picking up time at center and learning the position, and it's clear the Falcons have a much higher level of confidence in him than they did in the past, and he's certainly had a better preseason than he did in 2024."

First round roster cuts left Jovaughn Gwyn as the only semi-experienced center behind starter Ryan Neuzil after Jake Hanson hit injured reserve and Matthew Cindric and Michael Gonzalez were released. The Falcons made a multi-year investment in Gwyn as a former late pick and have kept him on the roster or practice squad while he gained center experience. Gwyn's improved preseason play and increased organizational confidence have positioned him as the primary backup center, barring further additions. Emory Jones' injury and the release of Ben DiNucci also clarified the team's backup quarterback pecking order.
