Etling was drafted by the Patriots in 2018 as a quarterback, but made the position switch in a bid to make the team this year. It didn’t work and he signed with the Falcons earlier this month to try to find work behind Matt Ryan. It didn’t work and he was one of the players cut by Atlanta on Saturday.
With kicker Matt Bryant returning to the fold, the Falcons also waived Giorgio Tavecchio and released Blair Walsh.
