Calvin Ridley In, Kaleb McGary Out For the Atlanta Falcons in Week 7

Aaron discusses the news that Atlanta Falcons wideout Calvin Ridley is set to return to practice while offensive tackle Kaleb McGary will miss time due to being placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

He breaks down the importance of the Falcons getting more out of Ridley this year and ways in which Arthur Smith can better feature a receiver with the former's skillset. Then, he looks at who is the team's top candidate to potentially replace McGary at right tackle: rookie guard Jalen Mayfield or veteran tackle Jason Spriggs?

Finally, he answers a listener question by looking back at past decisions to let players walk in free agency and breaks down why the 2019 decision to move on from Brian Poole was indefensible.
