Altanta Falcons to release Devonta Freeman

The #Falcons are releasing RB Devonta Freeman, source says, saving more than $3M against the salary cap and moving on from their former starter.

Fantasy Impact: 

Atlanta will take a $6 million hit in dead money by letting Freeman go, but will also save $6.5 million in the RB's salary. The 28-year old missed most of 2018 and only posted 656 rushing yards with two touchdowns via the ground last season in 14 contests. Freeman should have no trouble finding a new home, but he'll probably have to share the workload in whichever backfield he lands.
