It’s another day and another Atlanta Falcons player joining on the NFL’s reserve/COVID-19 list. Linebacker Foye Oluokun, who is expected to play a big role this season, becomes the sixth Falcon to be placed on league’s new roster designation, according to ESPN’s Vaughn McClure.
Falcons add a sixth player to the reserve-COVID-19 list in projected starting LB Foye Oluokun — on his birthday.

Oluokun joins DT Tyeler Davison, S Jaylinn Hawkins, FB Keith Smith, CB Jamal Carter and QB Danny Etling on the reserve/COVID-19 list.
Atlanta has also reportedly waived punter Ryan Allen, which could open things up for rookie Sterling Hofrichter to land the starting punting job in 2020.
