Several Atlanta Falcons players made a push for a roster spot with their play in their recent preseason tie versus the Cincinnati Bengals. Host Aaron Freeman discusses how running back Godwin Igwebuike and safety DeMarcco Hellams solidified spots on the team's 53-man roster and explains how injuries to Cordarrelle Patterson, Mike Hughes, and Jeff Okudah may be the only obstacles stopping the former from making the team.

He also breaks down which players also helped themselves and are now in a position going into the preseason finale versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. Those include offensive tackle Tyler Vrabel, cornerback Natrone Brooks, defensive tackle LaCale London, and linebacker Andre Smith. Finally, he discusses wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside helped himself, and how the Falcons wide receiver depth chart stands given injuries to KhaDarel Hodge (ankle) and Penny Hart (concussion protocol).
