Fontenot, however, is still here. This past offseason gave proof that his desire to think ahead while dealing with present problems is still strong, given that the Falcons signed Kirk Cousins and then drafted Michael Penix in the first round.

Currently, the Falcons have $29,000 or so in dead money for 2025 and zero dollars for 2026, so they'll retain some flexibility even if their cap space figures to be a bit limited next year.
