Atlanta Falcons defense will thrive with two stars safeties Jessie Bates and Justin Simmons

Locked On Falcons - Daily Podcast On The Atlanta Falcons

The Atlanta Falcons are expected to get a big boost on defense from having two stars at safety in Jessie Bates and Justin Simmons. Host Aaron Freeman and guest Cody Alexander (@MatchQuarters) break down what those two and Matthew Judon are bringing to Atlanta. Cody explains why having two interchangeable, ball-hawking safeties will help the Falcons defense and breaks down how Richie Grant fits into the mix as a big nickel/third safety.

Later, Cody explains how Judon's "juice" as a pass-rusher is much-needed in Atlanta. He discusses how he impacts the defensive front, and what Judon adds in coverage and as a run defender. Finally, Cody shares some observations of the Falcons during the preseason, weighs in on their cornerback position opposite A.J. Terrell and if Clark Phillips can impact there.
