Falcons TE Tucker Fisk fined by NFL for unnecessary roughness

Falcons TE Tucker Fisk has been fined by the NFL for unnecessary roughness

The Atlanta Falcons have received yet another fine from the NFL for unnecessary roughness. Tight end Tucker Fisk gets the pleasure of paying $4,167 for an infraction he committed during Sunday’s 29-10 win over the Indianapolis Colts.

Fisk spent most of the year on the practice squad but was signed to the team’s 53-man roster when fullback Keith Smith was placed on the injured reserve list last week.

Check out the team’s updated 53-man roster, depth chart and our behind enemy lines interview with Bears Wire.

Falcons release OT Rick Leonard, sign TE Tucker Fisk

On Friday, the Falcons released veteran OT Rick Leonard and signed TE Tucker Fisk to take his place on the 80-man roster.

Three days after cutting their roster down to 80 players, the Atlanta Falcons have announced a few more transactions.

On Friday, the team released veteran offensive tackle Rick Leonard and signed TE Tucker Fisk to take his place on the 80-man roster. Atlanta also released DB Cornell Armstrong from the injured reserve list with an injury settlement.

While Leonard’s release isn’t a total surprise, it was somewhat unexpected after he survived Tuesday’s cut deadline. Meanwhile, Fisk was released during the first wave of cuts, but he now gets a chance to redeem himself in the team’s final preseason game on Saturday.

The Falcons must get down to 53 players by the NFL’s final cut deadline on Tuesday, August 30. Neither Leonard, nor Fisk made the cut in our latest 53-man roster projection, but that’s why they play the games.

Fisk is a versatile tight end that played both offense and defense at Stanford. As for Webb, the former San Jose State standout transferred to Montana State in 2021. He played with Falcons second-round pick Troy Andersen last season.
