Former Falcons wide receiver Marvin Hall, who was the team’s primary kickoff returner last season, is set to move on from the team.

The Falcons had a “wait and see” approach to Hall, who will not receiver an exclusive-rights free-agent tender.

Hall, who played for former offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian at the University of Washington, played in 24 games for the past two seasons.

Hall, 5-foot-10 and 190 pounds, had 26 returns for 616 yards last season. He caught 12 of 28 targets for 209 yards and two touchdowns over two seasons.
