Josh Ali: Jettisoned by Atlanta
The Falcons waived Ali on Sunday, Terrin Waack of the team's official site reports.
Ali spent most of 2023 on the Falcons' injured reserve due to an ankle injury. He was able to return for training camp in late July, and while he suited up for all three games, he had just one catch for 19 yards. Ali will explore his next opportunities should he clear waivers.

Falcons' Josh Ali: Back at practice
Ali (ankle) participated in drills at the Falcons' training camp Tuesday.
Ali missed the entire 2023 season due to an ankle injury, but he appears to be fully healthy. He was able to make the Falcons' 53-man roster last year, and he'll look to do so again as a depth wide receiver.

Falcons' Josh Ali: Takes step back
Ali (ankle) was a non-participant during practice Thursday, Michael Rothstein of ESPN.com reports.
Ali logged a limited practice Wednesday, but he seems to have taken a step back a day closer to Sunday's London game against the Jaguars. The Kentucky product has been a healthy scratch for all three contests this season, so even if he recovers in time, it's not a certainty he'd suit up.

Falcons' Josh Ali: Inactive again
Ali (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Packers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

Falcons' Josh Ali: Signs new deal with Atlanta
The Falcons signed Ali to a reserve/future contract Monday.
Ali was elevated ahead of Sunday's regular-season finale against the Buccaneers and played seven offensive snaps with zero catches on one target. The 6-foot wideout then reverted to the team's practice squad before inking this new deal with the team heading into the offseason, per the NFL's transaction log. Ali ended his season-long stint on the Falcons' practice squad with back-to-back elevations over the final two weeks of the regular season, and he'll now compete for a spot on the active roster this offseason.

Falcons' Josh Ali: Elevated for Week 18
The Falcons elevated Ali from the practice squad heading into Sunday's regular-season finale against Tampa Bay.
Ali will be active for the second week in a row to end the 2022 regular season. The 6-foot wideout did not see any playing time after he was also elevated for the Week 17 win against Arizona, so it's unlikely he'll receive any significant opportunities unless Atlanta benches some of its starters during this Week 18 contest that doesn't have any playoff implications.

Josh Ali: Moves back to practice squad
Ali reverted to the Falcons' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Ali was elevated to the active roster for the first time this season ahead of Sunday's win over the Cardinals. However, the undrafted rookie never wound up seeing the field despite being active for the contest. Ali will now have a chance to make his NFL debut if he is once again elevated for the regular-season finale versus Carolina this coming Sunday.

Falcons' Josh Ali: Moves up to active roster
Ali was elevated from Atlanta's practice squad Saturday.
Ali has yet to make an appearance with the Falcons this season, and he'll likely serve as depth or as a special teams gunner with the majority of the pass catchers all healthy.
