Defensive end Austin Larkin, who was signed to provide depth, was released by the Falcons on Tuesday.

Larkin played 11 snaps on special teams in the 35-22 loss to the Bucs on Sunday.

Larkin, who had a strong exhibition season for the Falcons, has had three stints on the team's practice squad this season.

The Falcons waived guard Sean Harlow on Friday to make room for Larkin. Harlow was re-signed to the practice squad on Monday.
