Falcons’ Grady Jarrett realizes goal by returning from knee injury for start of training camp
FLOWERY BRANCH, Ga. (AP) - Grady Jarrett achieved his goal by returning to the field for the Atlanta Falcons’ first training camp practice on Thursday.
For new coach Raheem Morris, having Jarrett taking snaps at defensive tackle for the first time since suffering a knee injury that ended his 2023 season was the perfect way to open camp.
"When you see Grady, Grady lights up everything that he does," Morris said, adding Jarrett’s positive influence is felt in practice, the meeting room, games and "everything in life."
"Grady is Atlanta," Morris said. "He embodies everything that we're about. He defines our ethos."
