Players will remain on the list until they are medically cleared to return.

Davidson, 22, was selected with the No. 47 overall pick in the second round of this year’s draft by the Falcons. He signed a four-year, $6.9 million contract with the Falcons that included $4,121,379 fully guaranteed.

In 2020, Davison has appeared in three games for the Falcons and recorded four tackles, no sacks and a pass defense.
