Defensive end Steven Means was activated from the team’s reserve/COVID-19 list to the active roster Tuesday.

To make room for Means, the Falcons released linebacker Deone Bucannon.

After signing with the Falcons in May, Bucannon participated in training camp. Bucannon was drafted in the first round (27th overall) by the Cardinals in the 2014 NFL draft.
