The Falcons said early today that all available tickets from the team’s inventory have been sold for Sunday night’s regular-season home opener against the Green Bay Packers at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

The Falcons missed their long-stated goal of selling out of personal seat licenses by the home opener. But seats that remain unsold as PSLs were sold to groups for Sunday's game, a team spokesman said.

The Falcons say they now expect to sell the remaining PSLs -- 2,500 as of the end of last week -- by the season’s second home game, Oct. 1 vs. Buffalo.
