Defense: Defensively, the Falcons will look to take a step forward from the 2022 campaign with an experienced defensive unit led by George Spann at middle linebacker. Jacob Bucchin, Gavin Cerco, Dominic Popovich, Derek Trinidad, Jason St. Leger, and Sam Krauss all contributed during the 2022 season.

Special Team: Gavin Cerco and Jacob Watson have demonstrated growth in the kicking game and will continue to develop in that area.
