The Atlanta Falcons announced Wednesday that they released WR Damiere Byrd from their practice squad.

Here’s the Falcons’ updated practice squad:

  1. DB Natrone Brooks
  2. TE Tucker Fisk
  3. TE Parker Hesse
  4. DT Timmy Horne
  5. G Justin Shaffer
  6. T Tyler Vrabel
  7. T Barry Wesley (Injured)
  8. DB Lukas Denis
  9. DE Demone Harris
  10. LB Milo Eifler
  11. RB Carlos Washington
  12. WR Chris Blair
  13. WR Frank Darby
  14. RB Jacob Saylors (Injured)
  15. DB Arnold Tarpley
  16. LB Donavan Mutin
  17. T John Leglue

Byrd, 30, wound up signing on with the Panthers as an undrafted free agent out of South Carolina back in 2015. He bounced on and off their active roster until signing a one-year deal with the Cardinals in March of 2019

He signed a one-year deal with the Patriots for 2020 and signed another one-year deal with the Bears in 2021. From there, Byrd joined the Falcons on a one-year contract for the 2022 season before catching on with the Panthers this offseason. 

Carolina placed Byrd on injured reserve and he was later released with a settlement before catching on with Atlanta.

In 2023, Byrd has appeared in one game for the Falcons, but has yet to catch a pass.
