The Falcons have dropped three of their past four games, and second-year quarterback Desmond Ridder was benched in favor of veteran signal caller Taylor Heinicke.
Ridder was elevated to the starting position for the final four games of the 2022 season and started for the first eight games of this season.
He was pulled from a Week 8 matchup with the Tennessee Titans at halftime and Heinicke handled the quarterback duties for the remainder of the game.
