Falcons' Jessie Bates: Tallies four tackles in Week 3 win
Bates recorded four tackles (one solo) and one pass defense during the Falcons' 35-14 victory over the Packers on Thursday.
Bates played 65 of 66 defensive snaps during Thursday's win, though interestingly, he has yet to play every single defensive snap through three regular-season games after doing so 16 times last year. The veteran safety leads the Falcons with 17 total tackles, with his eight solo stops being fourth-most on the team.

Falcons' Xavier Watts: Picks off Love in Week 3 win
Watts recorded five tackles (three solo) and one interception during Thursday's 35-14 win over the Packers.
The Falcons put together an all-around performance for their first win of the season, with Watts putting the finishing touches on the victory by picking off Jordan Love within the last two minutes of the fourth quarter. Watts, a third-round selection of the Falcons in the 2025 NFL Draft, finished his rookie season with five interceptions, tied for second-most in the league behind Kevin Byard (seven). Watts has 16 tackles (10 solo), one interception and one forced fumble through the first three games of the 2026 regular season.

Falcons' Austin Hooper: Hauls in touchdown pass in TNF win
Hooper caught both of his targets for 11 yards and a touchdown during Atlanta's 35-14 win over Green Bay on Thursday.
Hooper was on the field for 16 of the Falcons' 71 offensive snaps, which was behind fellow tight ends Charlie Woerner (43), Kyle Pitts (42) and Nick Muse (17). However, unlike those three tight ends, Hooper contributed to the scoreboard by hauling in a five-yard touchdown pass from Michael Penix with just over a minute left to play in the second quarter. Hooper has a 4-31-1 receiving line (on six targets) through the first three games of the regular season.

Falcons' Zachariah Branch: Continues to contribute as returner
Branch caught one pass on two targets for seven yards while logging an 18-yard punt return and a 22-yard kickoff return during the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
The rookie third-rounder has contributed on both special teams as a returner and on offense as a rotational pass catcher. He's up to three catches (on four targets) for 21 yards and 110 return yards through three regular-season games. His involvement on offense hasn't been as high as other rookie wide receivers, but the Falcons appear committed to using Branch in multiple ways to utilize his speed and explosiveness.

Falcons' Olamide Zaccheaus: Two catches in Thursday's win
Zaccheaus brought in both of his targets for nine yards and returned one punt for four yards during the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
Both of Zaccheaus catches occurred in the second quarter on the same drive, which ended with a 44-yard field goal by Nick Folk. Zaccheaus is up to four catches (on six targets) for 17 yards through three regular-season games while operating as a depth option in the passing game, though Thursday's win may have been the start for a more explosive offense for the Falcons with Michael Penix under center, rather than Tua Tagovailoa, Cooper Rush (coach's decision) or Jack Strand (coach's decision). The Falcons will travel to New Orleans to face the Saints on Monday, Oct. 5.

Falcons' Jahan Dotson: Just one catch in TNF victory
Dotson caught one pass on three targets for 11 yards during the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
Dotson's three targets from Michael Penix were actually second-most on the Falcons behind Drake London (10), with Dotson finishing tied for the third-most receiving yards on the team. He's played over 60 percent of offensive snaps in each of the first three games of the regular season but has a 4-41-0 receiving line (on 11 targets) to show for it. That said, Dotson's scoring floor could steadily increase as the season progresses and Penix gets more reps under his belt. The Falcons will stay on the road for a Week 4 NFC South tilt against the Saints on Monday, Oct. 5.

Falcons' Kyle Pitts: Limited to one catch in win
Pitts secured one of two targets for five yards in the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
Pitts' slow start persisted Thursday despite Michael Penix making his season debut and taking the reins of the offense from the ineffective duo of Cooper Rush and Jack Strand. Pitts has managed just two receptions for 20 yards on six targets through three games, but given how sharp Penix looked right out of the gate Thursday, the duo is bound to start clicking in coming games as they've done previously.

Falcons' Nick Folk: Makes all five kicks Thursday
Folk hit both field-goal attempts and all three extra-point tries in Thursday's 35-14 win over the Packers.
The kicker did his job during the blowout win, with his longest field goal connecting from 44 yards out. Folk missed three field goals across Atlanta's first two games, both losses, but he bounced back Thursday night. If the Falcons can keep scoring, he is a viable fantasy option.

Falcons' Brian Robinson: Gets into end zone in win
Robinson rushed 10 times for 50 yards and a touchdown and returned two kickoffs for 54 yards in the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
Robinson's backfield mate Bijan Robinson and No. 1 receiver Drake London stole the show Thursday while accruing 194 yards apiece, but Brian had his own moment in the spotlight when he capped off a 10-play, 92-yard drive in the third quarter with a seven-yard touchdown run. Brian Robinson now has back-to-back games with double-digit carries and has at least 50 rushing yards in each, keeping him somewhat relevant in very deep formats heading into a Week 4 road matchup against the Saints on Monday, Oct. 5.

Falcons' Michael Penix: Stellar in season debut
Penix completed 18 of 25 passes for 256 yards with one touchdown and one interception while rushing twice for minus-2 yards in the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday. He also threw a two-point conversion pass.
Playing in his first game since Week 11 of last season, Penix started off sluggishly Thursday before finding a rhythm and putting together a near-flawless performance. Penix threw his one interception four plays into the night on a pass intended for Jahan Dotson, but he went on to record only five more incompletions the rest of the way while connecting with Austin Hooper for a five-yard touchdown pass just before halftime. Penix's chemistry with Drake London was also in fine form over the last three quarters, and he hit his No. 1 target for gains of 68 and 40 yards in the fourth quarter to help close out the upset victory. Penix should only get more comfortable the further removed he is from the third ACL surgery of his playing career, and he'll look to carry over the considerable momentum from his season debut into a Week 4 road divisional showdown against the Saints on Monday, Oct. 5.

Falcons' Drake London: Career-high receiving yards in win
London secured nine of 10 targets for 194 yards in the Falcons' 35-14 win over the Packers on Thursday.
London and Michael Penix got their first 2026 game together off to a very quiet start, but once the duo began clicking, they helped fuel the surprising road rout. Two of London's fourth-quarter catches accounted for 108 of his yards, the first a 68-yarder early in the period on which he appeared he could have scored but was caught from behind at the Packers' 16-yard line. London then struck again with just over five minutes remaining, recording a 40-yard grab where he ran away from a fallen defender to Green Bay's 13-yard line to set up the final touchdown of the night. The receiving yardage tally was a new career high for the 2022 first-round pick, while his nine receptions were his most since Week 9 of last season. London will take a 15-274-0 line into a Week 4 divisional road clash against the Saints on Monday, Oct. 5.
